Springtime Blessings


Oh I am so blessed at this time of year! Not that I am not blessed during other seasons, it just seems so while I'm in the moment! 

The reviving smell of renewing rain.

Daffodils and tulips radiantly beaming their colors.

Sweet melodies sang by birds awakening from winter's chill.

All these things bring such thoughtful joy into my days. It makes me wonder how anyone could ever dream that these glorious creations just 'popped' into being without crediting the One and only Creator! 

"Drip down, O heavens, from above, and let the clouds pour down righteousness; let the earth open up and salvation bear fruit, and righteousness spring up with it. I, the LORD, have created it." (Isaiah 45:8)

"Lift up your eyes on high and see who has created these stars, the One who leads forth their host by number, He calls them all by name; because of the greatness of His might and the strength of His power, Not one of them is missing." (Isaiah 40:26)

Not only has our Creator blessed us with His beautiful nature, it is a symbol:

"So let us know, let us press on to know the LORD. His going forth is as certain as the dawn; And He will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain watering the earth." (Hosea 6:3)


If we want and seek to know the Lord and acknowledge all His ways He will bless us in so unbelievably many ways -most of all - He will sanctify us and bring us to NEW LIFE IN CHRIST! Praise Him!
