When the Trees are Blooming but Your Heart is Not - A Spring Bible Study on Habakkuk

Well, first off, I'm kind of terrified to announce this.
I've never done this on the blog before.
In fact, I haven't done much of ANYthing on the blog as of late.
But there was something in me that wouldn't let the idea go.
And like my West-Texas husband says, "If you've got an itch, scratch it."
(Wow, he's going to hate that I attributed that quote to him. I promise he's educated:)

The itch I have is all Habakkuk's fault.
I started hanging out with him last year, and his story did something to me.
I loved it so much that I wanted to create a place to talk about it with others.






So that's why, beginning next week, we are going to usher in springtime by looking at, soaking in, learning from the itsy-bitsy, tiny book of HABAKKUK.

People may wonder why I would want to welcome springtime with Habakkuk.
He was a guy who suffered a lot. And shouldn't spring be about newness, sunshine, refreshment?
Yea, but the truth is, our hearts don't always reflect the seasonal calendar.
Trees may be blooming, but maybe your heart feels more like winter.

So if you are going through a hard time, have been through a hard time or will go through a hard time (see how I did that?), then you may want to hop on this study. You can grab a girlfriend to do it with you, or just grab a comfy chair in Starbucks.

Then, if you're up for it, comment on the posts - ask questions, teach me and others what you are learning, give me feedback. I would love to get to know you a bit.

Bring a journal, a Bible (or Bible App), a pen, your favorite mug of something hot, and together, let's discover more about the heart of God through His prophet Habakkuk.
I'll see you next Wednesday!
