Happy Spring!

It's spring in Texas. At least it is today. The sun is shining and promises warm temperatures. Most of the trees have new bright green leaves and my roses are blooming. It is truly my favorite time of year. 

Why does each year's new beginning speak to me so? It is a reminder of the new beginning in my life when I accepted Jesus as my Savior. Just as spring is a time of renewal of the earth, my spirit is renewed thinking about that time. Christ truly gave me a new life and a new heart. My gratefulness for that gift overflows at this time of the year.

Enjoy spring as it spreads throughout our nation. We have many things to be grateful for. I'll admit that I am seriously considering attending a TEA party this afternoon because we also have many problems and sometimes I think that Congress forgets they are there to represent me, not do their own thing. But overall, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.
