I struggle every year with seasonal depression on top of narcolepsy. The two go hand-in-hand. Today, I want to learn about winter in the scriptures. I honestly don't know how much I will find about winter, but I'm excited to learn about God as I seek to embrace this hard season of life.
Genesis 8:22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.
Opposites are a part of this life, so long as earth remains.
Psalms 74:17 Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and winter.
God is the creator of winter.
I then read about Winter Quarters during the exodus of the Saints from Nauvoo. It puts my own version of winter in perspective a bit to read about cramped quarters, disease, and malnutrition. I am taught what trust in God looks like. God created winter, and he also created me. He is going to help me find success on this journey.
