It’s a beautiful spring day.  The buttercups are blooming, and the tulips are a good 5 inches out of the ground.  I spent yesterday afternoon planting Azalea and Rhododendron bushes around the front yard.  I want some color around this old log home next spring.  I love spring.  I think it’s my favorite time of year. All the life comes back to the trees and people in general seem to have a brighter outlook. 

What a joyful experience the disciples had when they saw the tomb was rolled away and Jesus was no longer dead but alive.  It’s Spring.  A renewing of the Spirit.  New life everywhere.  Rejoice in the blessing of Jesus’ Resurrection. Rejoice in the blessing of Spring.

Happy Easter!

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?”
