Blurb Verse

"And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us."
Romans 5:3-5

Spring pokes its head...


Judging by the crazy winds and the cold weather outside, you might not notice it, but never fear!! Summer is coming!

Don't believe me??.. Here are a few hints of it I noticed on my walk today -

The coming of spring always makes me happy because it reminds me of three things:

1. There is an end to winter:
Even through the tough times you are going through, there is an end in sight. I can't promise you whether it will be healing in this life or whether you will have to wait in Heaven, but God has set a time for His return when He will take us home to be with Him forever in a land with no pain, sickness or tears.

2. There is beauty in the wait:
Just as these gorgeous spring flowers remind us that summer and good days are ahead, our lives and our attitudes should remind others that Jesus is coming.

3. There can be joy despite winter because of the truth of summer:
Even though things appear gloomy and we are unwell with no tangible end in sight, we can be joyful because we know that God has made a home for us in heaven. It is coming.. It is not question of whether but when!

So, lift up your heads, like these beautiful daisies in my garden, and keep your eyes fixed on God.

Why? Winter is almost at an end and Summer is coming!
