Winter is nearly over. Nature already shows signs of approaching spring and we anxiously await the hoped for new growth. No matter how long or dreary winter may seem, we always know that spring will arrive, eventually.
But what about the winters of our souls? What about those times we feel distant from God and disconnected spiritually? How do we create spring in our souls?
One thing that helps me to reconnect with God is long walks outdoors. The nature trails nearby remind me of the majesty and beauty of His creation and allow me to bask in His presence.
What about you? How do you encourage new spiritual growth during the winter of your soul?

When feeling like a long winter spiritually speaking, I add to my quiet time devotions.

Yes, musicmamag! Sometimes my winter-hardened, rebellious soul fights it, but when I’m obedient and spend that quiet time with God, that icy soul begins to thaw and let spring renew my spirit.

You know me Nancy! I do not appreciate winter. I think what I do is remain in community even though I want to seclude. Going outside in light is good too.

Yes! Blue sky and a sunny day – even if cold – do wonders to lift my mood.

I reconnect by spending time reading the Bible – reminds me who He is and who I am. Also listening to and/or singing praise music, hymns, etc.
