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
Believe…Without a shadow of a doubt.
22“…If you can do anything, please have pity on us and help us.” 23 Jesus said to the father, “Why did you say ‘if you can’? All things are possible for the one who believes.” 24 Immediately the father shouted, “I do believe. Help me to believe more!” I can so hear...
General or Gentler
I can easily become the colonel; okay…move me straight on up to The General, of The Shuff Household. Barking order left and right seems to be my tone at times with the kids. “Pick up your shoes from the kitchen.” “You’re bedroom looks like you have clothing for...
To spit or not to spit…
Spit. When you hear that word you may have various feelings or thoughts that conjure up in your stomach and/or mind. I grew up with older three brothers. They were not only just plain ole boys, but they were into sports and were “country boys” (some may say...
Is it really a "Big Deal"?
“Mountains out of Molehills”. Have you ever heard that expression? You know how sometimes we may take a minor issue and blow it up to be something bigger than it really is? Have you ever done that? Pshhh, I have. Well, sometimes our exaggeration causes more harm...
An Illness
When I came back from a trip to Africa I brought something back with me that I definitely did not intend on returning home with as a souvenir. This something was a parasite. I was so sick for weeks and lost weight. This illness would come and go without warning. ...
"Just a Walk in the Park"
Mark 6:47-48, “Later that night, the boat was in the middle of the lake, and he was alone on land. 48 He saw the disciples straining at the oars, because the wind was against them. Shortly before dawn he went out to them, walking on the lake. He was about to pass by...
"Gettin' our praise on at the Festival"
Last night we had church at The Florida Strawberry Festival. Casting Crowns was in the house! Nearly ten thousand festival goers were in attendance at the bands second appearance there in about four years. As soon as Casting Crowns as announced onto the stage, the...
God reassures.
Last night I kept waking up almost every other hour. I had gone to bed fairly early for me because I knew that I was going to be busy the next two long days. When it was three o’clock and five in the morning, I’d look at the clock, sink down into my pillow,...
Shhh, don't tell…
Has someone ever told you something exciting, possibly life changing, and they said, “Don’t tell anyone”? I bet you were about to bust at the seams to tell someone! But as soon as the time was right and you were given permission to tell, boy oh boy watch out for the...
Exorcism
If you’ve gone to the movies lately and seen previews of upcoming movies, or watched much network television commercials, then you know that the movie “The Last Exorcism Part 2” is coming out this weekend. The subject of exorcism has come up between me and my...
Swimsuit season or just a healthier me…..I'm Trying!!
About three weeks ago we, The Fam, took the boat out for a day of fishing. The first part of the day was a little chilly, so sweat pants and a jacket was the attire for the morning. As the sun started to hover overhead, the heat began to be felt and it was time...
Are you afraid of the dark?
Are you afraid of the dark? I remember when I was young I had to have the bathroom light on and my door open. My brothers probably didn’t appreciate a glow in the hallway, but it made me feel safe. The older I got, my fear of the dark turned into a different...
