Mental health verses lock down.

Hello All.
I hope that you're good, in this country.
It is important, to keep up your spirits in this time of lock down.

We are finding ourselves, that things are closed and we can't go and do our ''normal things''

I was moving into a flat, when this all unfolded, bad time to move but we didn't know what would happen.
And we had a small window of opportunity, to move in to stop covid 19.

I am baking, ironing doing things at home. and the schools have moved all online.

I have made hot cross buns, which are really nice, even though the crosses melted with the icing, they are still ''crosses'' but are wide crosses not the small narrow ones in the shops.

Horse ridding is on hold,  but we're keeping the horse dream alive by looking at the photos on line.
I hope that it only lasts a month.
However, we can experince our own little lockdowns.
Things that come back in our lives, that we come face to face, of ''I've told you so's.'' and so forth and so on.

So my question is, what can we do in this time of being afraid.

We go straight to the love of Christ.

We go to him, and we say to him, ''Lord have everything.''

We might not have much, we might have little, but what we do have is love. and Love is free with no cost.

I am fully aware of mental health,  and what it means to different people.
The rules and the regulations.
With God, there are no rules, or musts. or deadlines.

We are free in Christ.

We are imperfect people, but we have a perfector of our a faith, one that knows us so well.

And sometimes we are a bit like potted up house plants.

That have been in our ''pots'' for too long, we need to get out of our pots, and grow into a larger pot, so we can grow.

And not become ''root bound.'' and some of us can become root bound, and we tend to stick like that.

But the Lord wants us to be free.

Free to do his will at any time to set asside time to go after him every day.
Well those are my thoughts for today
I'll write again soon.
