COT: I turn 49 on Sunday. Fall is the season of letting go. Last year, I tried to let go of letting fear dictate my life. It’s been great, and challenging and I’m still working on it but there’s been growth. I encourage all of you to try to let go of something that no longer serves you – a habit, a belief, a way of being. And I’m here to talk to anyone about all of this.

A Prayer of Moses, the man of God
Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world,
from everlasting to everlasting you are God.

Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us,
