A Walk In Nature

Hey everyone. I’m Sherry Douglas with Heart-Song. Have you had a season in life when
everything felt upside down? Perhaps relationships were not going well, the job felt all wrong,
or health problems kicked up beyond anything you’ve experienced? Some may feel everything
is upside down because of the current political climate in our country. The last few months I’ve
experienced some of this feeling and I find I yearn for something or someone who can calm my
soul and return it to a state of wellbeing.
I turn to the Lord and His Word and within the relationship I have with Him I am reminded to
breathe, to trust, to love, and to simplify.
Another way to calm our spirits and help us return to a state of wellbeing is to immerse
ourselves in nature. There is a rhythm in nature that draws us into unity. The sounds and sights
of nature can help us slow our breathing as we fall into cadence with it. As we lift our faces to
the sun or watch the leaves swirl in the wind as they drop to the ground, our souls can be
renewed.
Are you feeling life is upside down? Let’s think about this quote by Mary Davis and then act on
it. “A walk in nature walks the soul back home.”
Live the way you want to be remembered.
