Selah Daily Devotion: Month of August

By Co-Pastor Ann Caffee

Life comes at you fast and furious! There never seems to be enough hours in the day to prevent those annoying rollover tasks. Sometimes, God abruptly interrupts our busy schedules with divinely-orchestrated pit stops. Whether it be something as simple as fixing one of life's flats, or perhaps balancing the shocks and sometimes a more complicated Will alignment even a total overhaul is required. That's exactly what happened, in the condensed version of everyday life B.C. (before Christ) according to Co-Pastor aka Annie Elizabeth Newton Scott Caffee!

Co-Pastor Ann invites us to join her as she sojourns on towards The High Calling of Christ Jesus. Hopefully, she says, as you glean through these pages, you'll discover some crumbs that entice, encourage and strengthen your pursuit of your own personal relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Co-Pastor Ann Caffee

Life comes at you fast and furious! There never seems to be enough hours in the day to prevent those annoying rollover tasks. Sometimes, God abruptly interrupts our busy schedules with divinely-orchestrated pit stops. Whether it be something as simple as fixing one of life's flats, or perhaps balancing the shocks and sometimes a more complicated Will alignment even a total overhaul is required. That's exactly what happened, in the condensed version of everyday life B.C. (before Christ) according to Co-Pastor aka Annie Elizabeth Newton Scott Caffee!

A native Washingtonian, at least out doors (inside the house was straight North Carolina), Ann was the second born of seven siblings.  She was educated in the D.C. Public Schools and upon graduation from high school, jumped right into 'I'm Every Woman See Me Roar' pop-culture hype of the 60's and 70's. And off she went. She was wife, Mother, D.C. and federal government employee and part-time under-grad .student That is until the dream became a nightmare and the Wonder Woman syndrome came to a screeching climax.

That's when the Nazarene Shepherd introduced Himself. For the first time since ever, she was able to acknowledge (out loud) try as she might, she couldn't seem to make life work! But thanks to a Holy Ghost calibrated recalculation which landed her on the backside of a mountain, she was forced to pause and ponder. Coming face to face with her limitations, she surrendered her life to The Master's Plan.

Much to her own amazement, Ann's been saved over twenty-five years at this writing. She testifies that almost from the beginning, the Lord birthed the love for intercessory prayer, studying, teaching and writing about His Word in her heart and she continues this awesome ministry to this day.

Co-Pastor Ann and Pastor David will soon celebrate 38 years of marriage and proudly proclaim to be the parents of four, grandparents of 18 and the great-grandparent of the most wonderful, beautiful and naturally brilliant children born on the planet earth.

Humbly submitted and committed to the Voice and the Vision that God has given them, Ann serves assisting her husband and Pastor exemplifying the love of Christ to a lost and dying world and ministering to God’s Precious Souls.

Co-Pastor Ann invites us to join her as she sojourns on towards The High Calling of Christ Jesus. Hopefully, she says, as you glean through these pages, you'll discover some crumbs that entice, encourage and strengthen your pursuit of your own personal relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! 

SELAH!

May each day be WONDER-FILLED!

I love the Lord, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications. Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live. Psalm 116:1-2

Ever found yourself at the end of your rope? That’s silly; of course you have! We’ve all been there! But did you ever think that that’s exactly where GOD wants you?

Too often we’ve been led to believe that you, the master of your own life, will never face a challenge that you can’t get past. After all you’re an intelligent individual, right? Wrong!

As you’ve probably figured out by now, there are some things, try as you may; you still don’t know how to fix this mess. But again, GOD sets it up, just like dat? He never intended us to live life independent of HIMSELF! Where do you think fellowship begin? That’s exactly right; like everything else, in the mind of God!

Unfortunately, GOD knows that except we have these impossible situational intrusions, you know that thing that seems to just pop-up intermittently in our path, we wouldn’t think we needed GOD! Don’t forget GOD knows your heart! So don’t even try to wiggle your way out of this truth, okay?

Every so often, we find ourselves in circumstances where you just need one somebody to talk it over with. Even if they can’t change your situation. So you call your Mama and your Daddy, your BFF, your Dawg and errrbody and else you can think of; hoping, that if somebody just listened, it will ease the pain, frustration and helplessness. Or, perhaps make you feel like at least they care. But then again, can you really trust them to not put you
