With OUR EYES we see
the beauty of Easter
as the earth awakens once more...
With OUR EARS we hear
the birds sing sweetly to tell us
Spring again is here...
With OUR HANDS we pick
the golden daffodils
and the fragrant hyacinths...
But only with OUR HEARTS
can we feel the MIRACLE of GOD'S LOVE
which redeems all men...
And only with OUR SOUL
can we make our 'pilgrimage to God'
and inherit His Easter Gift
of ETERNAL LIFE.

GOOD EVENING AGAIN !
Hopefully tomorrow morning will be the last of the Journal outages for awhile. It seems strange bringing in the morning sunshine while it's still evening.
April 12th would have been my Mom’s 84th birthday. We are allmissing her very much. She was a believer and I’m sure her soul has made that pilgrimage to God. So today we can celebrate her ETERNAL Life!
Did I tell you I’m an Easter person – or has it shown through in some of my thoughts each day ? We can choose to weep or to be joyful in whatever circumstance we find. I have done my share of weeping, and prefer to try to be thankful for the blessings each day brings.
The warm weather today brought forth lots and lots of buds and blooms. The landscape is beginning to look more colorful. I saw my first forsythia bushes in bloom on the way home from work.
Only 2 more days of this work week left and I’m sure they will go by faster than usual.
THOUGHT FOR TODAY…
Walk this day in peace and in the warmth of the sun
I love you all !
