About Stephanie Shuff

I am a blessed girl! God uses everyday situations in my life to teach me about Him and His love. God’s Word is alive and active! A verse that I may have read last year, last week, or even yesterday, may have a new meaning to me depending on the season of life I’m in. This isn’t just true for me, but for you too. I thank you for reading and sharing this blog. I pray that God will speak to you through it all.

A time to pray

It had been a while since I actually sat in front of my prayer wall to see each name and concern written in chalk. Praying for those written on the wall are often on the forefront of my thoughts, but intentionally following up on their situation…that was lacking. The...
