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.

Daily Walking with God
Who will you follow?
This past weekend Tim was in north Florida and Holly and I went to Georgia. We timed our return home so we could meet at an exit, have Holly ride with her dad so they could visit before she abruptly had to get back to college once we were home, and then follow each...
I Believe…I Believe…Lord, help me in my unbelief.
Ten more days. Ten more days until College Hunks Hauling Junk pack up our furniture and haul it to our newly (well…almost) remodeled home. I’m like a kid on Christmas each day (which is EVERY day) I visit, waiting to view my new present. Last Friday, after my...
A "Thank You, Jesus" Kinda Day
My shirt says it all about today’s Fall Conference that I attended today, with the title “Get in Focus”. The past few weeks have been crunch time for the Shuff family as we prepare to move into our home at the end of THIS month. THIS month! (More on that tomorrow.)...
In Awe of Him
Getting overcome by God’s presence is such a powerful and personal experience for me. Most Sunday mornings if you were to look at this conservative Baptist born and bred girl during praise and worship time through music, you would think you’d need to tell my man,...
So…THIS is what we are supposed to do…
So all of you should live together in peace. Try to understand each other. Love each other like brothers and sisters. Be kind and humble. 1 Peter 3:8 When I read the bible verse for the day a few things came to mind: Live together in peace? Ahhh, that sounds...
Proud to be from my small town.
Tonight was a wonderful example of why I am proud to be from Plant City, Florida. Our youngest child decided last year that he wanted to show a pig at The Florida Strawberry Festival. So, we completed the application process a few months ago, and tonight was the night...
Where does my help come from?
God created an enchanting earth for us to take care of and enjoy. He created the splendid skies for us to gaze our eyes upon. We may often look to our surroundings for help in the time of need of comfort and peace. Yes, the stunning sights often replenish me with...
If you have something nice to say…then say it!
Earlier this week a friend of mine shared an article titled, “19 Things I hope I’ve taught my daughter before her 18th birthday”. I sent the link to my two older children (daughter AND son) and even read the highlights to the whole family. Sounds like words I’ve told...
The Purpose of Life
If I were to ask you your purpose in life, how would you respond? I’m not talking about the “biblical” response just because this is a Christian website. What comes to the forefront of your mind? Maybe your response is a godly one. I’ll chat about that in a minute....
Happy Birthday, Wayne!
This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24 I am so grateful that thirty-one years ago God placed a man in my life. A man whom: I have had numerous laughs with (and many more to come). Have had tearful talks with to...
"Our plans" are not always "His plans"
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters. Colossians 3:23 Hunter will shoot me for posting this photo, but, hey, I’m a proud momma. Last night I joke with him about how I need to take his “first day on the...
In need of some Truth?
Let’s all say this together now, “God is good!” Louder and with great emphasis and conviction, “God is sooooo good!” Now, don’t you feel energized? What you said is true. And you know what? The Lord is Truth. What He says is true. When we listen to and read His words,...
