Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. —Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV)
“Put a stake in the ground and claim the peace He promises you in His Word!”

Want a Lent of More? How to have a Lent of Abundantly More God (& a Free 40 Day Lent Devo):
A tragic life is a life driven by social media likes instead of Christ-motivated loves.
A tragic life is a life about only collecting pretty things — instead of recollecting that we are made for eternally great things.
Never settle for immediate gratification – knowing you are actually called to eternal greatness.
This could be the Lent that dismantles everything that isn’t about eternal things.
[excerpted from our little Facebook family … come join us each day?]
That’s all for this weekend, friends.
Go slow. Be God-struck. Grant grace. Live Truth.
Give Thanks. Love well. Re – joy, re- joy, ‘re- joys’ again
