Intro, Disclaimer, Prayer
Another strong showing of ten pax at Crusade on a Monday.
After last Monday’s creative route, YHC had a few more options up his sleeve; however, since we had a large crowd including a few ruckers, YHC opted to go with the tried and true route through Whiteford. Apparently Stride chose that route, too, since we came upon a large number of runners along the way.

Devo
Philippians 4:4-7
“Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 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.”
Paul instructs us to always be rejoicing. That can be hard to do when people are mad at you or you get cut off in traffic or things just don’t turn out the way we want. Nevertheless, keep working on it. Remember that God is with us as we go about all of our activities.
