Sunshine on My Toes

My heart smiles a lot these days.
It is the sunshine.

​A couple months ago my world was all indoors, but the weather has changed.
And a garden was planted.
​And we have a dog, two cats, and eighteen chickens.
And I'm running again.

​I am outdoors several times every day and I am so thankful.
Winter is over.


​I will admit it. My little life got stuck in a rut. Attitudes and poor habits became so routine I could not even see them anymore. And the things I saw and knew needed change or improvement I could not muster the energy to do anything about.

​Then the world changed and it was no longer comfortable to stay where I was.
I had to change too.

How precious that we are given a zap as the seasons change to take steps forward on goals we had nearly buried in the trying months before.

​With the sunshine I reaffirm my healthy lifestyle of both eating and exercising.
I have new energy to organize closets and corners.
I approach budgets and billing with hope and faith.
​I want to see my girls learn and come along side them in their wonderful world of play.
I want to take walks with my husband and talk about nothing and everything.

​With the sun shining so brightly on my world there is little space for darkness and dread.

It is powerful.

Take advantage of this yummy sunshine today.
​Write down a worry or goal that you feel is looming over you.
Throw on some sun protection--it is really is powerful, that sunshine :)
​And get outdoors while you meditate and pray on it.
​Do some singing and some walking and some weeding (literally and figuratively).
Allow God's sun to shed light on your world and invigorate your heart and soul.
​You will see answers you never considered. You will have hope that you thought impossible.​

​Happy days of sunshine to you all.
And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years
​Genesis 1:14 KJV
