Dear God,

Spring is popping up everywhere!  Redbuds, dogwoods, magnolias are producing the most exquisite, colorful blooms.  I just stand and gaze at their amazing beauty!

Such events remind me of your constant presence in the world!  The trees, flowers and plants cry out your praise.  They are all giving us hope of renewal, restoration and reconciliation.  In ways we cannot comprehend they are letting us know God is with us, God is renewing us, God is blessing us.  We need the reminders because we forget.  We busy ourselves with work, worry and fear; yet, all around us messages are going out to us. "Fear not, I am with you.  Let's walk and work together.  Let us breathe the air of my spirit together.  Let us live in hope, peace and joy."

You are constantly

making us aware

of your

holy presence.

Thank you

for blessing us

again and again.

Thank you

for springtime's message.

Yours, Andrea
