Brewing Coffee

 

1 Corinthians 12:17

“If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?”


Brewed coffee.


I brew coffee every morning.

Today as it started to brew I said aloud,

This coffee smells good.


It occurred to me that because this task is a habit, I take it for granted.


I stopped to consider this and to thank God for the gift of smell.


The smell of rain and of flowers

The smell of perfume 

The smell of a little baby


Popcorn popping

Bread baking

Fish frying


The smell of bell pepper 

Delightful cinnamon

So many fragrant blessings 


God has made us fearfully and wonderfully 


So much to be thankful for.

I thank Him today for the smell of brewed coffee. 


It was a reminder not to take any blessings for granted…


Sometimes it’s the little things…



God bless.🌸✨ 

In Christ,

THANKFULLY

  Philippians 1:3   “I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,” Wherever you are today, I thank God for you. Family, friends and all. I thank God. I praise God for allowing our lives to intersect in some way. May this day and every day be filled with gratitude. I pray that grace and peace abound.  Let mercy and grace be multiplied. Thankfully, the Lord God has brought us, from a mighty long way. God bless✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie 

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 

A MIND STAYED ON JESUS

  Proverbs 23:7a “ For as he thinketh in his heart, so  is  he:  Woke up this mornin' with my mind, my mind was stayed on Jesus. Woke up this mornin' with my mind, my mind was stayed on Jesus. Woke up this mornin' with my mind, my mind was stayed on Jesus. Hallelu, hallelu, hallelujah. It is true this morning I woke up with my mind on Jesus. Throughout the night the Holy Spirit gave me songs. Songs of faith. Songs of encouragement. Songs to propel me to “keep on keeping on.” He gave me songs to underline scripture.  “Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty. Early in the morning my song shall rise to Thee.” “Holy is Your Name. Holy is Your Name  Holy is Your Name in all the earth.” “Bless the Lord. O my soul. And all that is within me. Bless His Holy Name.” The Holy Spirit took me a little further. “Said I wasn’t gonna tell nobody but I just couldn’t keep it to myself, what the Lord has done for me.” Hold on! “Please be patient with me. God is not through with me yet.” Through t
