Freedom.
Isn't it a weird feeling?
But somehow, it's one I crave almost constantly.
The fact of the matter is that at college -
my freedom is restricted.
Sometimes driving me to the brink of insanity.
I need freedom.
I need fresh air.
I need to be able to run wild and free.
I love feeling free.
I love driving with my windows open.
A full tank of gas and not a care in the world.
I love running and jumping around in large fields of grass.
I love laying on the ground staring up at the sky and smiling.
I love dance outside and singing - just me and God.
These are the times I can best connect with God.
When I am free to go where ever I feel Him leading me.
But with winter comes a price.
I trade in my freedom for a cage.
Trapped in the midst of a snow globe.
I trade in my blue skies for grey.
I trade in the green grass and leaves for a blanket of snow and mush.
I traded in my keys when I moved away.
and with it my last connection to freedom.
But no matter how trapped,
no matter how caged in,
God created every season.
And winter is just a great way for me to learn
to rely even more so on His strength.
And not my own.
God will give me Joy through these next few months.
Of that, I am certain.
So, Thanks God for winter, snow, and a new season of growing.
