Spring rains refresh the earth and provide life all around. Rain drops pelt the ground one by one equaling a puddle here and mud there. Dormant roots nourished to new life.

Better yet is the sun popping out after the soaking spring rain. New leaves simultaneously unfold in the sun’s rays heralding the coming of the new season.

Another walk after the rainy refreshment. The rain is brought forth in due season. Just enough for God to thoroughly water His creation. And the sun shining before the onset of seasonal affect disorder.

My walk reveals new life on a daily basis. Dandelions and wild flowers, bloom. Just in time for bees to benefit from early spring nectar production. Other important nectar providing blossoms to bees here in Oklahoma include, elm, redbud, plum, willow, maple, and fruit trees.

Just like flowers open to the sun above, may we open our hearts to the God that freely provides salvation and the promise of heavenly residence when we leave this world.

The darkness covered the earth as Christ was crucified on Good Friday. But His resurrection on Sunday brought forth life giving salvation available for all.

Open your heart to Jesus today. Enjoy new life in His loving presence and as you live and move and have your being in the One who has overcome the darkness, the Lover of your soul.

Scriptures for the Day

Psalm 23:5 “He refreshes and restores my life.” (Psalm 23:5 AMP)

“Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.” (Acts 3:19 KJV).

God’s Whisper

My Beloved,

Come to the garden of My Presence and be refreshed with my life giving grace, love, peace and joy that washes over your spirit like a refreshing spring rain. Open your heart to My Loving Presence like a flower unfolds before the sun. I am perfecting all that concerns you. Let go and let Me. Pray for My will to be done in your life and all the earth.

Love,
the Father
