Stay cool this week! Next week is supposed to be cooler.
Thought for the Week: Fear seems to be an epidemic in our society. The list of fears people experience can be endless. Satan never runs out of new fears to place in our lives – at least until we make up our minds not to live in fear. Don’t allow feelings of any kind to dominate you. Fear may present itself as a feeling, but if we refuse to bow down to it, that is all it is…a feeling. Remember God says “fear not.”
