The First Signs of Spring to Lift the Spirit!
Matthew 6:26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
The past few days in Georgia the weather has been simply beautiful, the earth is waking up! It is amazing to see how green the grasses have become. It blew me away to see how fast my beautiful jonquils shot forth out of the ground and began to bloom! Less than two weeks ago, we had an ice storm and snow! Also my wisteria is starting to have little green shoots. They will probably bloom this week as well. I don’t know about you, but with the change of season, comes a change in mood!
The mornings are still really cool, but I throw on a flannel shirt and get out on my front porch and just listen to the sounds of the birds singing their songs! The other day I had the privilege of getting to see a huge flock of Robins land in my yard. There must have been several hundred of them! I love to hear them communicate to each other. I am sure they were saying “Look at what treasures our Father has provided for us beneath all of these dead leaves!” This usually always means Spring has sprung. Through the signs of Spring, the Lord lifts my spirit!
With everything coming alive and the birds singing their praise to the Lord, it seems as though the following scripture is coming alive! Matthew 6:26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
Why worry, when the Lord has already told us in his Word and showed us that He intends on taking good care of us! I hope as you hear and see the signs of Spring outside your window or if you are like me, you get right outside in the thick of it, that you will know that you are valued and that the Father is taking good care of you!
