The above photo and story were inspired by yesterday's church sermon on relationships. In actuality, "the woods" represents circumstances in which we relate to others, and the misunderstandings that arise when we remove ourselves from The Path (or remove God from the picture). We often define our pain by our circumstances, and choose to react as a result of the enemy.
If only we stop reacting, and start receiving, we can overcome that which pushes us further into "the woods". The only thing we can change is ourselves, and the only way to do it is with God.
As Valentines Day approaches, I am thinking about relationships. I am striving to meet my circumstances with positive reactions. I am continuing my ultimate search for sunshine. As always, I hope you will join me.
