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.
Become a Christian
In your personal opinion, what do you understand it takes for a person to go to heaven? It is as simple as spelling the word faith out on each finger.
Daily Walking with God
Even though…
The words in Habakkuk 3:17-19 meshes perfectly with mine and Tim’s recent day of fishing. We headed out about twenty miles to go offshore fishing. We could see rain clouds ahead of us. Do you weave around them or go through them? Regardless, they were obstacles in our...
There is just something about a sunset and sunrise.
As I walked down the canopy of sea grape trees that have created an enchanting arched pathway to the beach, I could hear the waves crashing on the shore. I left my sandals beside the sea oats that were flowing in the breeze. The soles of my feet felt the grains of...
Gratitude on Memorial Day
There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. John 15:13 This verse epitomizes what millions of military service men and women have done for our freedom. Memorial Day, a day to remember those who have lost their lives for our country. While...
When I whistle to them
This photo is framed and on my bedside table. It was taken back in 2017. Heights and hairstyles have changed, but the joy of having my kiddos with me sure hasn’t. (I think we need to do a retake of this pic.) Ever since my children were little, when we were separated...
The Lord says a lot…are you listening?
“The Lord says” a LOT! We need to listen. How? Open the Bible. Read it. Pray it. Believe it. Listen. While reading Zechariah 8, I underlined and circled every time I read “the Lord says”. I was reminded that He says a lot! I know that when I feel God is silent, it is...
A gift for you
Someone needs to read this: This week was my last week being the large group presenter to about sixty+ kids on Wednesday nights. After praying about what to teach, it was settled to talk about having a hard heart versus one that is moldable and chasing after Jesus....
What are you supposed to do?
After reading about the vision of the four chariots in verses 1-8 in Zechariah 6, what stuck in my mind was the task at hand and how. The four horses/chariots/spirits went out to do God’s work, and were eager to do so. Jesus called us to to the same: So encourage each...
A flying scroll, a woman in a basket, and me chasing rabbits…?
Once upon a time, a flying scroll and a woman in a basket walked into a bar. What? Y’all! I have gone down into a rabbit hole to make sense of Zechariah 5…and I’m still perplexed. This chapter consists of two visions: “a flying scroll” and “a woman in a basket”. I’ve...
Start your day off right
“Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.” – Psalm 25:4-5 My hope isn’t “all day long” unless I start my day off in His truths. Lord, thank you for Your truth, for...
Need fig tree advice. Vine and Branches devo.
“I am the true grapevine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch of mine that doesn’t produce fruit, and he prunes the branches that do bear fruit so they will produce even more. 3 You have already been pruned and purified by the message I have...
A sense of urgency
When I read the parable of the Ten Bridesmaids in Matthew 25:1-13, I couldn’t help but get a sense of urgency. Over the past few months, those last four words from the previous sentence have been on the forefront of my mind often. “A sense of urgency”. Recently, my...
Be like the lily
“And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing, yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. Matthew 6:28-29 I love spring time. The flowers are clothed...
