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
"This is too hard!" For who?
Jeremiah 32:27, “I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me?” This is the first verse in Scripture that I read this morning. When I read it, I stopped, and said, “No!” Like “Duh”. Hellooo, He’s God, the Creator of Heaven and Earth and...
Letters to long-lost friends
I love how God always puts things in the forefront of my mind then reveals a verse in the bible that goes along with the thought without me seeking. He’s so cool! Just yesterday I was thinking about my childhood friends, Paula Sue and Jeana. We were inseparable. We...
Time to exercise.
I love to exercise. Do I on a regular basis? No. Growing up I had no choice but to be outside either playing with friends, biking, playing sports (I had three brothers, what do you expect), cheerleading, clogging, softball, or working out in the barn, field, or with...
How you dress says a lot.
Can I get an “Amen!”? The other night I was waiting on Holly to get out of the dressing room at a department store. I looked up at the greater than life size pictures of the teen models wearing the latest fashion. While I was observing the clothes the three girls...
"You can run but you can't hide"
“You can run but you can’t hide.” Some say that this phrase became famous when Joe Louis, a boxer from the 1930s, said it. Others may quote it giving credit to President Ronald Reagan when he said this regarding the capture of terrorists in 1985. But, the real One...
God put a rainbow in the sky
While lying in bed this morning waiting on my mind to finish prayers and my body to officially wake up, the song “Somewhere over the Rainbow” popped into my mind. I chuckled to myself at the oddity of that song coming to mind for what I thought was no reason. The...
I just got "Defunked"
The past few days I’ve been in a funk. I’m not quite sure why. But for whatever the reason may be, I know God will pull me out of it and His glory will shine in the end. But, now as I’m typing this, God is reminding me of the stillness He has given to me...
Are you ready?
“Let your love, God, shape my life” (The Message) “Lord, show me your faithful love.” (Easy-Read) “Lord, give me your unfailing love,” (NLT) No matter what translation you read Psalm 119:41a in, God will do and is ready to do all these verbs with His love for us. Are...
What does God want for you?
Can we post the following verses on every teen’s wall, bathroom mirror, door, etc.? Some may say, not only teens…. I’ll leave that for you to decide who wall you want to post it on. But I, being a mother of two teens and one more following behind them, I’m going...
Do your best.
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.” Colossians 3:23 I have this verse magnetized to my refrigerator and I just said this verse last night to one of my children. (God, have I told you how cool you are...
Whose design are you wearing?
I used to love watching the TLC show “What Not to Wear”. When people brought their clothes closet to the show, Stacy and Clinton, without hesitation, would throw the participants clothes away into a large garbage can. (I’m sure to be donated somewhere.) What great...
Open your eyes. Open your bible.
"Open my eyes so that I can see all the wonderful things in your teachings." Psalms 119:18 We are often reminded to open our eyes to gaze at God’s amazing creation. When you see a newborn baby, a sunset or sunrise across the landscape, the mountains covered with snow...
