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,

Help…My Help

  Psalms 46:1   “God  is our  refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Help.  God is my Help. Always present…in trouble and in triumph.  Help. God is my Help.  I lift up my eyes knowing my help comes from the Lord.  All my help.  Every need supplied. He is My Support. He is The Solution. My Benefactor. Ever providing. Always nourishing. Constantly replenishing. Help. God is My Help. God bless. In Christ, Sis. Stephanie 

THE WHAT AND THE SOEVER

  Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things  are honest , whatsoever things  are  just, whatsoever things  are  pure, whatsoever things  are  lovely, whatsoever things  are  of good report; if  there be  any virtue, and if  there be  any praise, think on these things.” The truth is Jesus. Honestly. This is a fact. Scripture declares Him to be. The Way, the Truth, the Life. His ways are holy and just. His Word is pure. He is altogether lovely. Focusing on the whatsoever things is to abide in the peace of God. Thoughts centered on bountiful blessings. Determined to dwell on the goodness of God rather than the constant chaos perpetrated by the enemy of our souls. The What is also the Who.  He is the King of Kings. He is the Lord of Lords. Matchless in power and might. He is the Faithful and True. He holds the balance in His Hands. God weighs the intent of the heart. True Hones...

The Journey Here

  Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. - Psalms 23:4 The journey here...that is really something to think about.  Where we are in life as compared to where we had hoped to be.  Paths chosen while other were forgotten or neglected.  Decisions.  Times of indecisiveness. There were times we crawled. Too weary to walk.  We ran. We were too impatient to wait.   The journey.  Here.  That is really something to think about. For me the most difficult and sometimes debilitating aspect of the journey, has been walking through the valley of the shadow of death.  Tempted to fear due to memories of time I could have spent, conversations I should have had, hugs I wish I had given.  This type of fearful fretting is not of God.  I have learned; I am learning that if I truly believe, He is with me.  If I surely stand on His promi...
