Episode Description

In this week of the Winter Seasonal Journal, host Susan Beth explores how the dark days of winter often feel endless but contain sacred discoveries we don't expect. Through reflection on Psalm 40:1-3, she reminds us that winter reveals its own kind of answers, whispering truths that ground us even in life's coldest seasons. This episode invites listeners to abandon fear and trust the God who makes even the shadows sacred, providing thoughtful prompts for prayer and reflection as we transition from winter to spring.

Key Scripture:

• Matthew 11:28-30 (The Message): "I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you'll learn to live freely and lightly."
• Psalm 40:1-3: "I waited and waited and waited for God. At last he looked. Finally he listened."

Weekly Reflection Focus:The tension between winter ends physically while some may still experience winter spiritually - finding beauty amidst heartbreak.

Journal Prompts:

1. Spend time reflecting on questions you've had this season.
2. Consider how God might be revealing himself in the questions you're asking.
3. How can you be more intentional in experiencing wonder and solitude?

Key Insights:

• Without intentionality, we tend to live on autopilot, pulled toward distractions
• Creating stillness helps us connect with our Creator, our ultimate source of life
• Journaling slows us down, allows us to breathe, and creates space for Holy Spirit
• Winter's darkness holds mysteries and revelations once our vision adjusts
• God desires to collaborate with us in revealing His goodness and mercy in the world
