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
Praying prostrate?
Today marks the end of summer vacations (Yes that is an “s” at the end of vacation. We Shuffs love summer time!) and the beginning of a new school year for me. Pre-planning will begin this morning. That means that routine will be back in my life. What is the...
Go big or go home.
August 6th was Opening Day of lobster season here in Florida. We were down in Cudjoe Key ready to rumble with those so called "bugs". A couple of days before the official date started we ventured out to scout out some lobster areas to conquer on the sixth. The other...
God is bigger than your troubles
I love this! Read it for yourself: "We continue to shout our praise even when we're hemmed in with troubles, because we know how troubles can develop passionate patience in us, and how that patience in turn forges the tempered steel of virtue, keeping us alert for...
Storms in life
We ventured out early afternoon from Cudjoe Key to eight miles offshore for a fishing trip. Yellow-tail snapper were caught, and a shark and dolphin (mahi-mahi) were seen. The aqua-colored water was so soothing as the boat rocked gently with each rise of the water. It...
How to handle difficulty
Have you ever been beside yourself and upset? I have numerous times. I wrote about one small incident on March 14th titled "A Pocket full of Promises". But what do I do when i feel like this: worried, upset, or a sense of no control? I give it up to God, pray, and try...
A FREE gift for you!
It's not your birthday, anniversary, or any other holiday that would require a gift. You come home, walk in the door, and see a beautifully wrapped package on the counter with your name on it. When you read your name you are surprised and excited at the same time....
God is more powerful
The other day we were heading offshore in the Atlantic Ocean to go deep sea fishing. As I was looking out at the trail in the water we were leaving behind, I mentioned how peaceful yet powerful the water is. The strength it has yet the silence it can be amazes me....
Dive in. You must read for yourself!
Wow! That's what I have to say about today's "Walking in the Word". Let me start off by saying, do what Proverbs 19:20 told us to do, "Listen to advice and accept instruction, and in the end you will be wise." Listen to my advice: PLEASE GO READ THE SCRIPTURES FROM...
Thanks, mom, for the discipline.
"Discipline your children while there is still hope. Avoiding it can be deadly." Proverbs 19:18 Okay, kids, do you see this? The next time you go and do wrong and get in trouble with your parents, just know that God told them to discipline you. I know my three...
Agree or disagree
Today my two eldest brothers turn fifty-two years old. They were born identical. When they were growing up one way people would tell them apart was by the way they parted their hair. Kevin would part his hair on the right (five letters in his name and in the word...
Be happy, not lazy.
So many people I today's society have the attitude of "I'm here, what are you going to do for me or give me?" Why? Do they just feel that because they are here, they are owed something? The mentality of those folks drives me crazy! Here are examples of two different...
Good Riddance!
How will people feel or remember you when you die? This is a question I honestly ask myself often. I know....that's a pretty morbid thought to have running through your mind. But, it's true. Over the past few months I have lost an aunt, an uncle, my sister-in-law's...
