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
God is into the details!
Y’all! God is into the details! That’s the word that was shown to me today while adding one simple touch to an area in mine and Tim’s bedroom. Listen, we have been in our newly renovated home since October 2016. Yes, a year and a half! I LOVE to decorate, but I...
It’s a Bit Windy!
Wind. It’s a powerful thing. But…God, The One who creates and calms the winds, is MORE powerful! While reading various scriptures on wind, I am more convinced with the awesomeness and power of our great God. From God dividing the waters by wind, from the Holy Spirit...

Forgiveness 101
So…recently, I’ve had multiple conversations regarding forgiveness: The needing to forgive. How to forgive. Why to forgive. Needing forgiveness. A few examples come to mind, but one has been pivotal in my life. While sharing my testimony with a dear friend, we...
Are you in need of some HOPE?
I pray that today's "Minute-MORE Monday" speaks to you. But each one of you should continue to live the way the Lord God has given you to live. 1 Corinthians 7:17a But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Glory be to him, now and...
He is Coming Back!
God’s NOT Dead. He DID rise. He IS coming back again one day. I’m a day late and a dollar short, but better late than never. The release date of the movie, God's Not Dead 2, was April 1, 2016. On Good Friday, almost two years later, I FINALLY saw it. This movie...
Fitting In or Being Different?
Back in the 1980s I HAD to have “the” pair of jeans everyone else was wearing. I can’t recall if they were Jordache or Gloria Vanderbilt or what, that I pleaded with my mom to go purchase for me. And they couldn’t be just any fit. Oh no! They had to be so tight...
A Rescuer
Recently, I was privy to photo displaying fallen US servicemen coming home from overseas which immediately brought tears to my eyes. My heart ached for my friend, and her family, as they had discovered that their nephew/cousin/son/brother was one of the seven...
