WAITING ON THE LORD

 

Psalms 27:14

“Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.” 


Wait.  

Hold up.

  Hold on.

Press pause.

Wait a minute.

Slow down gym shoes.

Take a second.


Ecclesiastes tells us that to everything there is a time.

 Much of our time is spent waiting.

With trust in God we can do so with good courage.

Courage. 

Clear expectations.

Courageously clear, when we acknowledge 

that Our Heavenly Father is

A Very Present Help in Trouble.


As for me…

“I know I am a child of God, although I move so slow…

I’ll wait until the Spirit comes and move as 

God commands.”


Romans 12:6-8 instructs:


Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;


Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;


Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence, he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.


Yes. 

“I’m waiting on Jesus.   

Can’t do nothing till He comes.”


As I am waiting:

My prayer is to serve, to assist, to encourage.


Lord let me be a good “waiter” in Your kingdom.

I ask it all in Jesus Name. Amen. 


God bless✨ 

In Christ,

Sis. Stephanie

Unlimited Access

"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"     - I Timothy 2:5 Dear Friends, "Please listen carefully for our options have changed."  I stay on the line listening to each option. More often than not there are at least seven.  If none of the options meet the need you have the final option of pressing "0" for the operator.   I praise God that on this Christian journey.  The access options do not change.  There is only One. One God, One Mediator, the man Christ Jesus. Jesus paid the ultimate sacrifice to provide us with unlimited access to the throne of God. We are never put on hold when we reach out to God. Prayer is a direct line through Jesus Christ.  Our worship, our praise is to the One and Only God.  Worthy is the Lamb. Praise God for Unlimited Access through Jesus Christ Our Lord. God bless! in Christ, Sis. Stephanie

I Remember

"When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.  Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings I will rejoice." - Psalms 63:6-7 Dear Friends, "My sister and me used to have bunk beds.  This reminds of me of that. Do you remember Stephanie? It's like we are having a pajama party." I remember. I sat with my sister in her Hospice room and I remembered.  Bunk beds that we sometimes had stacked and at other times they were laid side by side, like twin beds.  I remember that we are not in our room of long ago. Unless the Lord says otherwise when this "party" is over my sister will be with the Lord and I will return to my earthly home.  I remember. God was a Mighty Fortress during those days.  In a place where people go to comfortably die, the Lord was teaching a lesson on how to live.  Praise and worship was the norm.  My sister the angelic soprano sang.  Family came in the room and for...
