So yesterday was meant to be blue Monday, the most depressing day of the year, I wonder if by giving it a title we make it more depressing. Maybe we didn't realise it was a miserable Monday until someone tells us and then sure enough....
Early in the morning I took myself off to walk the dog, the sun was rising and the fields were white. The plants carried a sparkling frost and glistened in the sun - whatever else might have been going on it was hard to be sad when God had given us the gift of such a beautiful morning.
'When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,
what is man that you are mindful of him, the son of man that you care for him?
You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honour.' Psalm 8 :3-5
