I love my God-time and it seems that Creation has a way of pointing to the Creator.<br /><br />Hope you are having a great summer!Spinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18053852939167332787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33029643.post-70025595987820414392009-07-17T10:13:19.270-07:002009-07-17T10:13:19.270-07:00Hey Susan,

I got busy and overlooked publishing and responding to this comment of yours. <br /><br />It's hard to tell for sure what makes you feel better, isn't it? You always wonder whether your mood would have improved anyway, even if you hadn't started spending more time outside.<br /><br />Yet it's in the outdoors I believe we're intended to be when the weather is good. A more "natural" place for us to be, eh?marjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01810913152746930742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33029643.post-91054242486561549932009-07-16T20:07:35.464-07:002009-07-16T20:07:35.464-07:00Hi Brenda!
So good to hear from you again. I'...Hi Brenda!<br /><br />So good to hear from you again. I've been wondering how you are. So you too love that early morning time. The words "Be still and know that I am God" come to mind, eh? Such a good time to connect with Him. It gets the day off to such a good start. I'll be thinking of you as well at 6am and imagine the clock rolled back three hours. <br /><br />Yes, I've read "Darkness my Only Companion" and enjoyed it. But one book which I'm not quite finished but enjoy even more is "Hope for Wholeness: The Spiritual Path to Freedom from Depression" by Sharon L. Fawcett. This lady went through nine years of depression, then spent the next nine years writing this book. It's excellent. I was quite depressed when I started reading it but found it comforting.<br /><br />As I said, so good to hear from you again. Have a great rest of the summer, okay?marjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01810913152746930742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33029643.post-46759238780746704862009-07-16T18:44:36.377-07:002009-07-16T18:44:36.377-07:00p.s.

"Darkness Is My Only Companion".....a Christian response to mental illness by Kathryn Greene-McCreight. I'm just into it but already liking it very much.Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18096173727766001995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33029643.post-77954722705980622602009-07-16T18:41:17.273-07:002009-07-16T18:41:17.273-07:00Hey Marja,

I love the early morning but I've had a hard time getting up and getting going because of my new med., Seroquel. It has taken me a couple of months to get used to it but I'm thankful to be up early again.....in my new small town. It's very quiet here.<br /><br />I'm SO glad you are connecting with God and loving your early morning time. Summer is a wonderful time to establish the habit. Not so easy to continue it into the winter.Your patio would be full of snow, eh?Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18096173727766001995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33029643.post-75253658339224245932009-07-15T23:35:55.287-07:002009-07-15T23:35:55.287-07:00Marja,

For me, gardening has enabled me to "see" things ever more clearly and to engage with nature in a more knowledgeable way. I've not doubt that it makes me feel better and better!<br /><br />Susansbwriteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05881627992105939490noreply@blogger.com
