Here comes the SUN!

In college I was an Elementary Ed major and I minored in Community Health.  With community health classes I learned quite a bit about vitamins, nutrients, and what my body needs to function properly.  For the past two weeks I have been in a funk.  A weird funk.  It was crazy.  To the point where in the mornings I would lay in the bed and ponder the thought of just not getting up and laying there all day.  I would then think why are you saying this, why are you thinking this?  This attitude is NOT Heather Lasley, this attitude is crazy.. I would then think.. are you depressed, and if so why.  So I would pray Lord help me get up, change my attitude, and help me enjoy this day.

For those of you who don't know, the weather in NC right now is AMAZING!!!.. I mean crazy nice.  So.. all weekend I was outside.  Just reading in the sun, running in the sun, playing in the sun, just being in the sun.  Do you know what?  VITAMIN D!!!!>... that is what I have been missing.  Vitamin D.  Due to the fact of not being able to drink milk, Vitamin D is hard for me to come by if I don't get it from the sun.  SO.. as of right now.. the FUNK IS GONE!!!.. I KNOW... all of the craziness because of not being in the sun.  It was as though I had a new found joy.  
There was this crazy welling up in my soul, a joy.  Then the praising began.  God thank you for this day, thank you for this SUN, thank you for your Son, and thank you for giving me all I need.

With all of this said, the same thing applies on a spiritual level.  When I get to the point of confusion, loneliness, and just in a desert all it takes to get me out is the Son.  All you need is the Son.... and sometimes the Sun.
