Those who have an ear let them hear

One of the greatest mysteries is the perplexing relationship between God and humans. I cannot think of a more glorious yet frustrating subject. Especially when it comes to people trying to find answers when all they have is questions. I’ve counseled and given psychological first aid to those who have gone through a traumatic crisis and I’ve listened to people in hospital waiting rooms repeat that age-old question, “Why is this happening?” They cry and beg, but many times they cannot hear a sound from Heaven, and usually neither can anyone else. I’m thankful for the holy scriptures that are wonderful promises, but nothing would be better than to sit down at the kitchen table with Jesus or at least one of His angels and have some coffee while we discuss all the things I would like to know. I’m sure that if we were given this glorious invitation that trusting God would be the foundation of the conversation.

BEING IN NATURAL LIGHT IMPROVES MOOD, INCREASES HAPPINESS

Dear Doctors: My company called the employees back to the office, and I’m dreading it. There aren’t many windows, and it’s all fluorescent lights. Being able to be outdoors while working from home has been great. I know I’m less depressed when I get to be in daylight. Is there any science behind that?
