All of Spring proclaims the Hope God gives our hearts
When you come to the edge of all the light you know,
and are about to step off into the darkness
of the unknown,
faith is knowing one of two things will happen:
There will be something solid to stand on,
or you will be taught how to fly.
Barbara J. Winter
My faith is a result of looking at my life and the world around me and realizing that things are fine, and time after time life has been very good to me. Faith allows us to explore, to risk, to take great joy in life and living. It doesn't just sneak up on us and become a part of us, though--faith is a decision to trust
The eyes of all look hopefully to you; you give them their food in due season. You open wide your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing.
Psalm 145:15-16
GOOD MORNING !
So far this week we had about a day and a half with the temperatures in the mid 50’s. Oh how good that felt. It was wonderful going outside with out freezing. Then yesterday the wind blew in some colder temps and it went down to 27 degrees last night. I’ll have to put the layers back on today so I can stay warm.
I’ve been ready for some time now to get out my Spring clothing . I’m so tired of winter’s dull old colors and shapes. The sunshine is supposed to come out which will be a blessing so even though it is cold again, the sun will warm this old heart for sure.
Someone I talked to someone recently ( I forget exactly who ) who said that they’d vowed never to complain about being hot again. Winters are so harsh around here that being hot sounds good to me too. I don’t like to complain anyways. It takes all the joy out of a day.
Work is picking up and each day I’ve been busier and busier. I’m glad I got all the files and the office straightened around when I did because there is no time for it now. I hope I have the energy for it all.
I owe, I owe, it ‘s off to work I go…
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
When we have hope, we are showing that we trust God to work out the situation. Trust is the only way we're going to make it through and be a part of God's marvelous plan for His child.
Barbara Johnson
In this season of renewal and rejuvenation
May your spirit soar high and
May you be blessed
Not just today, but always.
Wishing you a beautiful SPRING !

First love your thought for the day...lovely!!
Second the 50's are wonderful aren't they? So nice as you said to finally start looking forward to spring clothing. I will not complain one time. I am praying for a mild summer...not the 100's as we had a couple of those last year.
Hope you had a great day at work!!
Hugs and love,

It's been a bit milder here this week, hust a tad, but now the forecasters are telling us to watch out for the weekend: Weather coming straight from the Arctic - snow, wind and really cold. Hope the weathermen are their usual selves - always getting it wrong. Take care.
Love Sylvia xx
It's raining here right now. Really coming down. I love it, too!
Have a good week,
