The wind blows sweetly, budding flowers push through the dirt to face the sunshine, the bird's song fills-up the background, trees awaken from their winter drab with buds of green and red.
Spring has sprung.
It's a time when we are motivated to plant, to play and break the cycle of our winter hibernation.
To live.
Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, or stand in the way of sinners, or sit in the seat of mockers.
But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night.
He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. - Psalm 1:1-3
This is your season, this is my season. The moments, the days, the years; they will slip away if we let them. Leaves without water - wither.
...Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.
- John 4:14
Do you know the One who gives living water? Do you want to - because He wants to know you.
And if you know Him; are your leaves full? Is your life fruitful?
Are you living for today or for eternity?
Take every moment
You know that you own them
It's all up to you
To do whatever you choose
Live like your dying
And never stop trying
It's all you can do
Use what's been given to you
Live like your dying....
God, you have not promised me tomorrow - but you've given me today. And I praise you.
You've not promised me a life of ease, but you've given me grace, forgiveness, love and guidance. You're promises of peace that surpasses understanding, rest when I come to you, a Spirit of power of love and of self-discipline are made real in my life daily. May my words be full of grace seasoned with salt, guide my feet in the path of righteousness and forgive my sins.
