I love this Christy. To welcome the dreary dark of certain seasons is to relax in Gods tender mercies. It’s not always easy, for sure, because we do want the bright colors of spring and summer. Ive been learning to practice joy and lament for a while. It actually helps me get through those dark times.

However, I’m in Deep South of Louisiana so our trees are only just now starting to change. I actually planted flowers yesterday. There are times I am envious of you who live in the places that have actual seasons.

Thanks for sharing

This is lovely.

This month I thought it best to learn to sit still. I’ve not done well with this the last few years.

The first day was tough, the next better and today was good.

I’ve called it “Be Quiet for 5.”

I’m praying others in my group lean into this month of stillness.

Psalm 139:1

“Lord, you know everything there is to know about me.”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭139‬:‭1‬ ‭TPT‬‬

El Roi is the God who sees. I’m an open book before God.
