Signs of Spring
New Life… Wonderful Hope

Celebrate the gifts that God has given to you. Daily Miracles of goodness dusting our world.

Sing an Easter time song filled with surprising moments
…to re-energize your spirit
…to re-establish your connectedness to nature
…to re-new your faith with prayer in your heart
…to re-claim what you felt was lost
…to re-store a good balance of harmony in each day
…to re-veal by your actions Jesus love in the world
…to re-lease any negative thoughts
…to re-adjust life so it includes charity for all

In striving and that is all one has to do… strive to be your best.

Then get up everyday and
…rejoice
…resurrect
…be a Risen Vessel of God’s Love.

March 2021

Surrender:
…to all that holds you back from life-giving ways
…from holding back acceptance of all humanity
…to being a servant of God’s Love
…to the holy courage of speaking truth with dignity
…to living your faith by caring your cross
…from letting your fears control your life
…from thinking you cannot get up again

Surrender… with a prayer in your heart. May our fragile souls expand and be fortified as we see that Jesus has been there all along waiting in the surrender. In the surrender, hope is born of despair and faith arises renewed.

May this March that brings forth A Holy Week be a reminder of the joy-filled graces God shares for the journey.
