When I Look Around

 

Psalms 8:3

“When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;” 


Blessed. Exceedingly, abundantly, blessed. 

When I look at God, when I consider the magnitude of His mercy I know I am blessed. “When I look around and when I think things over…” I realize that I am truly blessed. 


I look up and see the beauty of the clouds, the magnificence of the sun, I consider how Great God is. 

I feel the cool breeze on a hot day, I praise God for His care.  

When thunder rolls and lightning flashes, I bless His Name for His might and protection. 


Looking around at night and glancing at the sky, I think about Almighty God Who at His Word proclaimed 

“Let there be light” and

moonlight and sunlight appeared. 

He set the stars in place and calls each of them by name. 


I look at God’s handiwork. 

Everything the Lord made is good. Very good. 

I praise Him for His wonderful works. His consideration of us is remarkable. 

His Name is Excellent. 


Blessed. Exceedingly. Abundantly. Blessed. 

When I look around… I see God.


God bless. 

In Christ,

Sis. Stephanie

SHIFT KEY

  1 Corinthians 13:12 “For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.”  It all depends on how you look at it. What’s your focus? Is the picture clear or blurry? Do you need to crop the photo for a better view? A little shift in focus can be key.  Shifting the way you look at things can make a big difference.  I am looking at the shift key on my keyboard. I have options. Lower case or uppercase. Numerical or special characters. Failure to shift correctly can cause denied access because my password is not recognized. Shift is key. Some things can be better understood if we take the time to change our focus.  Zoom in on what really matters.  Stop looking at things that appear  insurmountable. Instead shift your focus. Look at God. The view is breathtaking when I look up. I see Jesus. He sees me. I am shifting my focus. Eyes lifted up. I see where my help comes from. My help comes from the Lord. The Lord who

Through the Eyes of Faith ...By Grace

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not of work, lest anyone should boast.   - Ephesians 2:8-9  “Amazing grace shall always be my song of praise for it was grace that bought my liberty. I don’t know why He chose to love me so. He looked beyond my faults and saw my needs.”  So much has happened since the last time I “saw” you. The changing circumstances of the journey have been stabilized by an Unchanging God.   Journey on my sisters and brothers. Bask in the knowledge that unfailing mercy and sufficient grace surround you.   Grace makes new beginnings possible. We can begin again. The time is now. The choice? It’s yours. Yours for the asking.  Through the eyes of faith…we see Jesus.  God bless! In Christ,  Sis. Stephanie
