LORD, O LORD, HAVE MERCY

 

Matthew 24:7

“For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.”


Not without warning.

There is nothing that takes God by surprise.

The troubles of the world are documented in His Word. 


This doesn’t mean that the daily news 

of heart wrenching turmoil 

in our communities, 

the country, 

and the world, do not affect us.


There are many days when I am so saddened that tears fill my eyes.

 I shake my head. 

I put my hand over my heart. 

I wonder “What is wrong with people?”


The prayer I pray:


“O Lord I have heard thy speech, and was afraid: O Lord revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy.”

- Habakkuk 3:2


No matter what, God cares.

He hears the faintest cry.


For God so loved the world that He gave…


The Only Begotten Son of God,

He has all power.


“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. - Matthew 28:18


There are no exceptions. 

Power belongs to God.


Mighty God 

Powerful Lord 

Lord, O Lord, have mercy.


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

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...

If We Live

  For  that  ye ought to say, If the Lord  will ,  we  shall live, and  do   this ,  or   that .                                                   - James 4:15 If I live to see tomorrow... I remember hearing adults say this when I was a child.  Tomorrow seemed to be some miraculous day.  Big things were going to happen.  Something special was in store.  I began to think and say aloud: I can't wait until tomorrow. I did not realize that the biggest factor in "tomorrow" was if the Lord willed us to live to see it.  Everything, each and every day rested in the will of God.  So, what about today? How about some reframing.  "The Lord has blessed me with today. He allowed me this day."  How about doing something in the now. Procrastination is a thief.  It is a threat to hope....
