I read it for years and finally put it up for a while because I wasn't seeing it fresh anymore.

Many people have such a sense of hopelessness right now. It is a struggle at times to not be overwhelmed. I have to remind myself daily that the Lord is in control and He is never surprised. We are His little lambs and just like you do this time of year, He takes care of us.And spring will come, it can't stay winter forever.<br /><br />I love that devotional and have done it several times.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing this..sometimes we just need to know that others are struggling as well.<br /><br />~M~Ranch wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18390401233856129684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-28417725568054106332010-02-21T18:18:59.388-07:002010-02-21T18:18:59.388-07:00How true!

I agree with having time alone, getting outside, and just DOING something!

At least so far. ;-) I do think staying busy is key -- although, I imagine when one is truly depressed, it's hard to get the oomph to get going. Here's to hoping spring arrives early!Thimbleannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03650582809426872051noreply@blogger.com
