Welcome back to Rare Finds and Raw Reviews! This week, we are continuing our 365-day journey through the Word, covering our weekly devotionals and scripture readings from October 3rd through October 9th.
In this episode, we are celebrating some fun birthday weekend excitement as my birthday arrives this Sunday, October 11th! I'm sharing a bit about my traditional "dear diary" picture updates on Facebook and Instagram, and reflecting on the profound privilege of aging alongside God. But I'm also keeping it completely raw and real: I share an update on a recent breast ultrasound and specialist referral. While waiting on confirmation, I am choosing to leave it entirely in God's hands, trusting His promises, and walking in His peace. Let's dive into this week's Scripture together for strength, encouragement, and comfort.
📖 This Week’s Devotional & Reading List:
10/3: Experiencing God's Peace
10/4: Ask Big
10/5: Christ in You
10/6: Complete in Christ
10/7: Be Heavenly Minded
10/8: The Greatest Work
10/9: A Legacy of Prayer
✨ Key Reflection:
When life hands us unexpected news or uncertainty, we are reminded to stop, breathe, and experience God's peace that passes understanding. Knowing that we are complete in Christ allows us to ask big, focus on heavenly things, and lean into a legacy of prayer. Whatever season or health journey you are facing right now, we can trust the process and leave our tomorrows in His faithful hands.

In this episode, I share a fun intro as we kick off October—my birthday month! We’re chatting about the cozy shift into fall, Oktoberfest events, and the peace and fulfillment that this season brings (even down here in Texas!).

Approaching Him with humble hearts allows us to experience His presence deeply and keep our eyes fixed on the ultimate goal: walking faithfully in His purpose every single day.
