philippians 4:6-7

{source}

do not be anxious about anything,

but in everything by prayer & supplication with thanksgiving

let your requests be made know to God.

and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding

will guard your hearts & your minds in Christ Jesus.

(philippians 4:6-7)

worry only breeds worry.

instead of allowing worry to be an idol in our lives,

we need to bring every request, every fear,

every praise & every petition to Him.

bring your worries to Him, and He will replace them

with His peace!

SheReadsTruth: Galations

The SheReadsTruth community starts a new study today; Galations! 

I'm excited about this one. I've been (very, very slowly) reading through the Bible chronologically over the past year or so, so I've been reading in the Old Testament pretty exclusively. I just started going to a new Bible study where we're working through Genesis, so still Old Testament. Don't get me wrong, I love the Old Testament, but I'm excited to start reading somewhere else as well.

More fun news? This plan is actually available from SheReadsTruth through YouVersion, so you don't have to jump back & forth between the app & the site like I did before. Pretty exciting!

So, will you join us? This group of ladies has definitely been a blessing & an encouragement for me to dig into the Word every single day. The more the merrier! ;)

thoughts & Truth.

I read this passage this week from Lies Women Believe

{by Nancy Leigh DeMoss}, and I just had to share:

"His Word is Truth, and if I am to defeat the stronghold of Satan's lies in my life,

I need to saturate my life with God's Word. I cannot make it without consistent time

exposing my mind and heart to the Truth of God's Word."

It spoke to my heart, really.

There are some issues that I struggle with,

some places in my soul where Truth should dwell.

Some lies that I have been believing.

I am so thankful that His Truth sets me free.

{if you've never read Lies Women Believe,

I would highly, highly recommend it.}

happy weekend, friends.
