When there is a lot of snow on the ground, it is so easy for the Devil to move in and speak the word " Depression" in your ear. Being depressed is no fun and there are definitely so many excuses that you can use in a winter storm. The Devil will really use your mind as a playground so keep busy. Clean your house, read a book, learn to crotchet.
Keep your mind moving as best you can if you do not wish to be depressed. It is very easy to think negatively when you are stuck in the house all day long. Whether you are by yourself or have a bigger family and going stir crazy, don't let the Devil have even an inch of your mind. Believe me, He will do His best to put silly thoughts in your mind to get you all out of shape.
Now would be a good time to start some kind of a journal. Journaling is a good way to jot down your positive thoughts. When one keeps a journal, you can look back on a droopy day and remember your most favorite times in life. It's a win, win to keep a journal. I am going to start my own faith journal so when I am depressed I can remind myself of all the good things.
Last but not least, pick up a new hobby. Crafts are a good and safe way to beat boredom. I have started crocheting as a personal hobby. I do not do it every day, but it is something that I can do by myself and give the end projects to friends and family as gifts. They love home made Christmas presents!
So, during this storm, be creative! Don't let the Devil have even an inch to move in your smart and intelligent mind. He will try and use every technique He has to get you to become one of His. Brew a cup of coffee, if that is your thing, and start the day out positive. It will most likely end up that way as well. Don't give room for the negative thoughts. There is always something you can do to keep busy. #beblessed
