Combat SAD and Experience JOY this Winter

SAD 330According to the Canadian Mental Health Association, about 2 to 3% of Canadians will experience Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD, in their lifetime, and another 15% will experience a milder form of the winter blues. Feeling low can have a profound impact on our daily functioning, and as Christians, it is ours' and God's desire and that we share His light, joy, and love everywhere we go! It can be a challenge, though, when external factors are influencing our mood and feelings. How can we counteract symptoms of SAD and experience JOY this winter?

Saying "YES" to God

jasongray whenisayyes

Artist Jason Gray says all the best adventures in his life started with him saying ‘yes’ to God. I'm sure you have good adventures that started the same way. His new song “When I Say Yes” is a song of surrender to Jesus, which ought to be the hallmark of what living the Christian life is all about. He said “maybe that's what salvation is: a simple matter of having a "yes" in your heart toward God. “

So... maybe God is prompting you now to take some leap of faith, big or small? YES is a good place to start!

Hear the song on CHRI Radio or now on YouTube!
