I think one of the reasons I love Spring is because of new life. Flowers coming back, trees budding, a lot of newborn animals on the farm. And most important, our Lord and Savior risen from the dead.He's Alive! Death, hell and the grave couldn't hold him.

Beaten,spat upon, burdened down carrying a heavy cross, spikes driven into his feet and wrists, a crown of thorns placed on his head, stabbed, and still He asked His Father to forgive them. I couldn't begin to understand such love.

And yet, He arose, showing us, death is not final.

On April 17, I celebrate my 49th birthday in Christ..Still not perfect but a better person then I was pre-1976.

Sorry about all the chatter but this time of year brings a lot of beautiful memories. My husband And I both celebrated together. It was his 40th birthday and he always said life began at 40 for him. I will always cherish the 'resurrection'
Season.
