Hosea 10:12 "Sow for yourselves; reap steadfast love; break up your fallow ground, for it is the time to seek the Lord, that he may come and rain righteousness upon you."
It is the first day of spring and actually was nice in the northeast. This is VERY unusual for those of us that live up in the frozen tundra. It is an amazing and welcome blessing after this long and difficult year of pandemic living. I know this kind of weather is giving me hope for an extended time of having tea on our front porch and working in our gardens. To say that I am anxiously anticipating working in the fresh air and feeling the warmth of the sun on my skin would be an understatement. It is healing for the soul to be in the glory, majesty, and beauty of God's creation. Every flower that blooms, tree that buds, and birds song that is sung brings with it hope, and hope is certainly something we could all use right now.
Spring brings with it renewal and hope, but, as a believer, I know that true hope and new life is found in Jesus. He bring mercy, grace, and new life to all those that yield to Him. God brings healing and peace to broken souls and showers love upon His children. This is the truth of the Gospel in the warmth of spring, heat of summer, chill of fall, and bitter cold of winter. God is always waiting for all of us with open arms and eternal love.
