The Blessings of a New Day

It is a cardinal song morning, with blooming daffodils and budding roses. It is a yellow finch sunrise, with bluebell blossoms and crocus smiles. It is a Sabbath morning, with hymns of praise raising to the heavens and prayers for the Spirit filling the journey. This is the day which the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it!
This morning, I am counting my blessings in the joy of a bright Spring birthing. The sounds, the sights, and the smells of life emerging into newness is nearly overwhelming. The joy of heaven and earth anticipating creation's newest revelations gathers even the most casual of observers into the Spirit of the day and the wonder of the One who gives it.
God's grace gather you in this Easter Season journey with Jesus and, like the men who found themselves walking with the Risen Christ on the road to Emmaus, my you, too, feel your heart burn within you for joy as you talk with the One who knows you by name and comes to claim your life.
Your servant in Christ,
Pastor Don
