WOD
Philippians 4:6-7
“6Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
Stress and anxiety can be just as unhealthy and deadly as any physical ailment and people deal with it in many ways. Often people seek relief in ways that lead to destructive lifestyles that usually involve excess in some area. Whether its drugs or alcohol, overeating, pornography, infidelity, or some other excessive or destructive behavior, they often find that whatever short term relief they find is just that: short term. A better option is to seek relief thru Jesus Christ. The Lord tells us that he is there for us always and no problem is too big or complex that He can’t help you weather the storm.
Moleskin
- Sorry for the late BB. I seem to be getting later and later with these so I will try to do better.
- Great effort by all. We kept a pretty good pace trying to get through the deck so not much mumble chatter.
- Did catch a little grief when I doubled a number the second time to get it above five.
- Would have made it through the deck if we didn’t have to return the blocks.
- As always, it was an honor to lead. Hope all have a great week (what’s left of it).
Breakfast
Next Sat (10/1) I am providing breakfast for second F at our house (corner of Rustling Woods and Ivey Hollow). All are invited and we will eat outside so come as you are, no need to “clean up” first. Please drop a note in the comments or email me if you plan to come so I can get a head count for the M.
Cheers,
