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

Honest 

Just

Pure

Lovely things


Think on these things.

Meditate on them.

Hide them in your heart.


A flower blooms.

A baby bird hatches.

Stars twinkle.


A mother nursing her baby.

A child at play.

A father throwing a ball to his son.


Just lovely.


So many lovely things. 

Hidden from plain sight sometimes.

Yet, lovely nonetheless.


A beautiful song.

A warm conversation with a friend.

Peaceful interaction.

Calm surroundings.


Lovely.

What and soever.

Whatsoever things.

In them there is virtue.

Worthy of praise.

The lovely.


Think…on these things


God bless.

In Christ,

My, My, My

  Luke 1:46b “My soul doth magnify the Lord,” My, my, my Such were my thoughts this morning as I looked out of my window at the sunrise. The Lord in His Majestic power has ordered another day. Waking up with the ability to see, to hear, and to speak. Graced with mercy to walk and talk. The Lord continues to bless and to keep. I did not wake up without aches and pains. Carefree and without challenges is not an entry on my schedule. Yet, my soul doth magnify the Lord. The Lord has given me another day to live another opportunity to serve. My, my, my.  God bless.🌸✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie 

Just a Moment

  1 Corinthians 15:52   “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.” A moment. Just a minute. Things happen. Situations change. Here one minute and gone the next.  So the saying goes. Moments. They mater. While we have time… Take a second. Press pause. Stop.  Consider. Right now.  This moment. Counts…⏰ God bless.🌸✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie 

I’ll Go With You

  Isaiah 41:10   “Fear thou not; for I  am  with thee: be not dismayed; for I  am  thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” “Jesus said if you go I’ll go with you.” Butterflies in my stomach  A racing heart  I do not want to attend the meeting  I wish I could cancel the appointment  I don’t want to talk about it Over “it” I don’t think I can do this  BUT GOD He reminds me that of course, I cannot accomplish even the most mundane tasks on my own  He assures me day by day that He is with me  He builds me up He orders my steps  He speaks peace to my soul  He renews my heart  Do not be afraid  You belong to Me I’ve got you I am holding you in My mighty hands  Go! I will go with you. God bless.🌸✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie
