October 1st!

We made it to October 1st. Hooray!

Thank you for shuffling through September with me, thinking about how to live more peacefully, and pondering the peace that only God gives. The peace of his grace, forgiveness, and hope overwhelms any month, any circumstance, and any trial. That’s why it passes all understanding. Thank you, Lord!

I’m taking on a new “theme” for October. It’s something that I’ve been thinking about a lot actually, and it fits in really well with this month, home to Halloween and all things creep-tastic. No worries. I’m not going to approach the “should Christians let their kids trick-or-treat?” debate. I’m going to talk about fear.

The things I fear, I’m finding, are things that a lot of people fear. Sharing those fears with others and lifting each other up with the comfort of God’s Word really helps me abandon worry and embrace the love that drives out all fear.

I hope you’ll come along.
