Health Note - Nature Breaks?

And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden;

and there he put the man whom he had formed.

Genesis 2:8

".....recent research showing that short micro-breaks spent

looking at a nature scene have a rejuvenating effect on the brain — boosting levels of attention — It’s a cognitive neuroscience study, meaning not only that benefits from a nature experience were captured in an experiment, but also that their apparent neural signature was observed through brain scans.
The researchers set their study in the context of modern trends toward ever larger numbers of people living in cities — and an already demonstrated link between urbanization and mental health problems, such as depression and anxiety." WashingtonPost

"Nature is filled with spiritual lessons for mankind.
The flowers die only to spring forth into new life;
and in this we are taught the lesson of the resurrection.
All who love God will bloom again in the Eden above.

But nature can not teach the lesson of the great and marvelous love of God. T

herefore, after the fall, nature was not the only teacher of man.

In order that the world might not remain in darkness,

in eternal spiritual night, the God of nature met us in Jesus Christ.

The Son of God came to the world as the revelation of the Father. 

     The psalmist says: The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth his handiwork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge. Some may suppose that these grand things in the natural world are God. They are not God. All these wonders in the heavens are only doing the work appointed them. They are the Lord's agencies. God is the superintendent, as well as the Creator, of all things."
