Spring is a most wonderful time, for as the season comes in, it welcomes with it so much new light and new growth, that it lifts our spirits high. We experience the sheer wonder of seeing new life peeking out of the soil. Each bulb that is growing is a new friend. Each shrub and tree that begin to bud and burst into flower is an old friends, much treasured. We see the hardy, brave crocuses poking through the old dead leaves, still hanging about on the top of the soil. Then suddenly the sun shines and they open their beautiful petals wide and soak up its light. The light shines through their golden, white and purple petals, transforming them. It is as if they have put on their Sunday best clothes and are singing their hearts out for sheer joy in praise of God and life.
Let us sing with them too.
Let us open our hearts and praise God
For the beauty unfolding before us,
Blessing each new day. Amen
