The signs of spring are everywhere...the budding of the trees, lilacs...the birds gathering their nesting materials, the baby goslings paddling with their parents, the dandelion polka dotted lawns, daffodils and tulips, road crews filling the multitude of potholes, rain one minute sunshine the next, brighter colors warn by the people making their appearances outside, lawn care trucks making their way around the neighborhoods....the list goes on...the sunshine feels good even though there is still frost each morning...and I am not shoveling snow today, I think...
This has been an exceptionally long winter, it seems...record snow fall, rains, flooding in various areas, while other areas are drier with fire season already starting...I talked to someone in Tampa, Florida...San Antonio, Texas...all in one Daylily week, and we were seeing spring in its various forms from snow to balmy sunshine, to muggy hot...
God has designed such variety for us all...in weather to geography to people...seasons, giftings, personalities, everything...what a Ceeator!!!
We have some basic likenesses...shelter, food and water as well as the need to fill the worship...help us look to the one, True God, the Creator of the big and small things, the universe to the small violet poking out on a sun filled day...the mountains to the new born bird, the person next door to the one across the world..
Thank YOU....
Ecclesiastes 3:1-2, 11 There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot,
He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.
Deuteronomy 11:14, 16 then I will send rain on your land in its season, both autumn and spring rains, so that you may gather in your grain, new wine and olive oil.
Be careful, or you will be enticed to turn away and worship other gods and bow down to them.
Song of Songs 2:11-12 See! The winter is past; the rains are over and gone. Flowers appear on the earth; the season of singing has come, the cooing of doves is heard in our land.
