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.

YOU’VE GOT SPIRIT For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline. 2 Timothy 1:7 “I’ve got spirit, yes, I do. I’ve got spirit, how about you?” Oh, friend, but which spirit do you have? Ponder on these words, and then...

Point 4: Be an Encourager, Fan the flame. This is why I remind you to fan into flames the spiritual gift God gave you when I laid my hands on you. 2 Timothy 1:6 When the fire starts fading, I either grab the fire bellows to blast air onto the hot coals underneath or a...

Explore: What is your desire?
Let’s explore a little. Let’s explore what you desire. Our heart’s desire is to glorify your name. In the night I search for you; in the morning I earnestly seek you. Isaiah 26:8b-9a Yes!! Amen and amen! When I read these words in the bible, I about jumped out of my...
