One place that I love to go and just be quiet with the Lord has always been my backyard.  

I love taking a quilt out there, my Bible, my ear buds, a book, and maybe a journal.  

I’m able to spend time just sitting quietly listening to God’s creation all around me as the birds sing, the cows eat, and rabbits hop around.  

I spend time reading God’s Words and getting fed by them. Or sometimes I listen to worship music and just close my eyes.  

If I feel like God is really speaking directly to my heart something big, I like to have a journal with me so I can write it down and remember it later.  

Whenever I am having a hard day or dealing with a stressful situation, just getting that little step away to be with God is just what my soul needs. Even if it is just five minutes. 

I almost forgot to mention that I always go out barefoot! There is just something special about being barefoot in grass while being outside to connect with Christ.
