Good morning, friends.

I am Julianne Wooten, and I am on staff serving as a care resident.

And I'm so excited that in my position, I get to build out a disability care ministry for the village church.

Today's scripture is Philippians 4 through 8. Rejoice in the Lord always. Again, I will say rejoice.

Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand. Do not be anxious

about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with Thanksgiving. Let your

request be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your

hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable.

If there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

This is the word of the Lord.

Thanks be to God.

Hey, good morning.

If you have your Bibles, go ahead and grab those.

I just want to kind of walk us through this passage, almost phrase by phrase.

If you don't have a Bible, there's a hardback black one in the seat underneath you.

If you'd like a nicer one, maybe for the holidays, you can visit the Lost and Found on your way out,

and you might even find yours there.

And so while you're turning there, this week, it's always weighty for our family.
