This morning the rain comes down, now gently, to encourage this newness and the first flowers have just recently bloomed. The apple trees promise a harvest with their explosion of life. The raspberry bushes are starting to sprout reminding us of their juicy goodness. The grass is decreasing in brown and increasing in the extravagant hues that will soon be used for many hours of joyful playing and simply resting in it's unappreciated splendor.
We take so many things for granted as we pass them by with seldom any thought. Spring is my most favorite season. It reminds me that death does not have a lasting sting but that even through times of death and slumber there will be times to follow of joy and delight promised to us.
Take the time to find new hope in creation
around you today and praise your Creator for the many blessings that new life brings!
