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.
