What I Love About The Spring

"What I Love About the Spring"

The Lord has really refreshed my life with so many different people, things, and thoughts this spring. So, here are, " A Few Things That I'm Just Love'n This Spring!"

Green grass:

It just looks so much greener to me for some reason. Maybe it is because of the rough winter we just came out of or because of "I Surrived The Ice Storm Of 2009"!

It makes me dream of going to Ireland one day maybe on a Missions trip.

Watever the reason it just looks greener to me.

Cold Wet Rain:

I love how the rain is making the grass so green and giving all the vegitation the moisture it needs to make our yards so pretty. Ahhhhh, I love to go to sleep to the sound of a loud rain.
The coolest thing is when it is raining "Cat's and Dog's" but the sun is shinning. My favorite thing about rain is, it reminds me of The Blood of Jesus and how it washes away the dirt.

Warm Sunshine

The very thing that I said I loved in the above paragraph makes me love sunshine in the spring. Somedays it rains and it is cloudy and dark and you don't think you will ever see the sun again. Just when you think that, here it comes shinning through the clouds. I just feel Like I need to make the announcement to those around me, "I see the sun"! Whoooo, this makes me think of Jesus too. That is what I'm going to say when I see God's Son Coming through the clouds!

Song Birds

I love that the birds come back in the spring! If you come to my house you know I love birds. There is a bird in every room of my house. Birds also remind me of love. I can't help but to fall in love with my "Love Bird" more everyday. I guess I love birds because of their singing and that ,is one of my favorite pass times too. And how cute is a bird taking a bath in a little puddle of water! When I see birds in the spring all I can think of is God knows when one of them falls to the ground. How much more He cares about the smalles of things in my life.

A Change

There were a few days this winter that I felt I was stuck in a rutt. It was too cold to go out side, (sometimes to cold to stay in my house) and not a whole lot to do. Now, spring is here and the weather is changing for the better. Now, the Lord has blessed me with plenty to do. He has given me a job. At the begenning of the year I asked the Lord to use me more than He ever had and I think He gave me a job so that I could be a wittness. Sitting at home by myself was not going to get the job done. I also love the attitude change in people especially in kids. They know that school is on the back strech and I know things are starting to shape up.

Easter Sunday

Yesterday was by far my favorite day of spring. Easter has always been an important day to me, but yesterday was so different. This past week we had five people saved at our Church! So, this just started it out on a great note. The Lord showed me so many new things through bothe services yesterday but, I have to admit my favorite thing was getting to tell 18 kids the story of Christ death, burial and ressurection. Some of these kids had never heard this before and I will never, for the rest of my life forget the look in their eyes. For the first time they realised wow ,Jesus must really love me to die for me. For the first time they realised our God is different from all other gods, He's Alive! I pray that I will have that look in my eyes everyday of the year and not just in the Spring at Easter.

Nice Lips!!

You want to hear something funny? So, Sundays for me are beyond crazy right? I stat by teaching the kids sunday school class, then get the kids to the bathroom then to their seats, put some lipstick on, find out if the nursery workers are there to keep the nursery, greet visitors, go to the bathroom myself, slip into the office and find a song to sing for a special, and yesterday we had some extras going on than normal. Dr. Louis Arnold was a guest preacher at our church, the kids were singing a special, and we were going to have lunch at the church for all the people who were going to go out in the afternoon for "Out Reach Sunday" whew.... needless to say lots of things going on. Well, after the kids sang I slipped into the office and put on some lipstick because , Jason wanted me to sing a special which I did after that I go into the kitchen to see if there is enough food for the lunch. This is when I realize that I was suppose to bring the drinks for this lunch. So, I grab the keys and go to get some cokes or something. While I'm in the truck I just happen to glance in the rear view mirror and what I see almost causes me to wreck. I guess in all my running around I put my lipstik on twice, without looking in the mirror. I had so much lipstick on it looked like I had been eating barbeque and it was everywhere but my lips. The first thing that came to my mind is I just sang a solo in front of the whole church and we had visitors!!!! This is just one of the crazy things that happened to me yesterday I'll spare you the long details of when I slipped and fell all over myself on a busy road while on visitation yesterday and getting in a fight with a thorn bush. (and yes, the thorn bush won!) The moral of this story is all of my friends and faimily need to pray for me on Sundays!

This blog is just going to be a page where from time to time I can come and wright down some of my crazy thoughts. I also hope that I can share some of the wonderful things the Lord is doing in my life and also some fun things I have done or seen.

Please hang with me though because I don't really know what I'm doing on a computer let alone how to create an interesting blog.
