Week 4: Darkness | Winter Journal Reflection 🌙
What if darkness isn't the enemy we've been taught to believe it is?
In this week's Winter Journal reflection, we're exploring the sacred gift of darkness and how God meets us in the quiet, unseen spaces of our lives. Winter's long nights aren't something to endure—they're invitations to rest, reflect, and receive the deep restoration our souls need.
Just as seeds require darkness to germinate, so do our new dreams and deepest healing. This week, discover how to befriend the darkness and find the profound peace that emerges when we stop running from what feels uncomfortable.
✨ WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER:
• Why darkness is a sacred space of rest and restoration• How to embrace winter's long nights as gifts• The truth of Psalm 139: God fills both light and darkness• A gentle evening practice for welcoming darkness without fear• How to trust God's work in the unseen places of your life

đź’ QUOTE TO CARRY:
"Darkness is not absence—it's presence of a different kind. Not all valuable work happens in the light. Some of our most important growth occurs in the unseen places, in the quiet hours, in the deep work that can only happen when we're not being watched or evaluated."
🙏 THIS WEEK'S INVITATION:
As evening approaches, welcome rather than resist the coming darkness. Notice how your body naturally wants to slow down. In this darkness, you don't have to perform or produce—you can simply exist, held by the God who created both day and night.This is Week 4 of the She Is Awakening Winter Journal series—a sacred space for slowing down, listening deeply, and discovering what God is speaking in this quiet season.
