it's official...

...first day of spring was yesterday...and as i sit in my warm home...listening to the pounding of the rain against the window...although it doesn't look like it...spring has arrived...

one of my favorite times of year...it is a sign of "newness"...of re-birth...change...flowers are blooming...sun is shining...err...it will be soon...but it shines of a new beginning...after the grey of winter...

and i apply it to my life...it may seem like winter...but a new day is dawning...and the best part? God is at the center of it...i have no need to fear...as He holds me in the palm of His hand...

thank you Lord for Spring...for new beginnings...for a new day...
