I love this time of year! Everything is so fresh and green, almost a perfect lime green with all the little new leaves coming out. These were taken along our river greenway system again just this morning. The green of the plants was so intense even the reflections in the water looked green. The two Canadian geese looked like they were sitting on green glass! I hope everyone has a pleasant and blessed day. Praise God!

REFLECTIONS We were created to be Reflections Mirrors of someone Greater, Higher, Wiser Purer Easter gives us our chance To once more dance At the foot of His Throne Held enthralled within the golden glow Of His Beauty But all of that dance Requires for us to return To that which so many spurn Obedience, submission To God’s will So reach for that opportunity To once again live in unity With someone so beautiful That submission to Him Only brings about a win For you of perfection’s glory!
Easter II Easter is a time To remind Of this earth’s re-birth A removal of Our own sin’s curse It was an absolute win Of Jesus the living Christ As He gave us a chance At a totally new life A REBIRTH of His Paradise As He stepped out Of a darkened tomb He was giving us a chance To come out of That darkened womb Of our own evil rebellion Easter is as in His Holy Book A telling of that story Wherein is revealed God’s greatest glory His Mercy, Grace & Forgiveness His love for us so great He was willing to put at stake His own SON’S LIFE The greatest sacrifice So on that history-shattering day We were eternally saved Out of His Greatest Love From forever being thrown Into infinity’s blackest abyss
A Fateful Day on a fateful day a young man died as he breathed in, took his last sigh angels watched from purest celestial skies He relinquished His Spirit In a pain, deep & burning At that moment, the universe stopped turning to watch & see what would happen next what for mankind would be their second step would we take notice follow in obedience or just turn our backs with only a shrug or a mild grimace never before in man’s history had for us been such a day so blistering with meaning, intensity when God once more brought back to earth His clearest sanity
Easter White rabbits & chocolate bunnies All those warm, soft fuzzies Pastel eggs hidden in green grass Until a happy child makes A joyful discovery of them at last With loud, sudden squeals of delight What a truly pleasing sight! All dressed up in clean, bright clothes All done for this day’s special show Soft ribbons in the hair New shoes, polished, & on the feet & goodies that will not long Be allowed in a basket to keep Nothing wrong with these simple delights God does not mind us Enjoying all his blessings But with many of these gifts May also at times come a terrible testing This day of Easter is really About a sacrifice Not to be forgotten For all our joys & pleasures Came at the cost of another’s life! A bloodied cross, a broken body An empty tomb God’s love on display Brought about all of the Joys & pleasures of this day Made us once more Welcome in Heaven Brought us back into God’s loving arms Safe at last from all of satan’s cruelest harms So on that most glorious day Our eternal souls were saved As Christ stepped back out Into a world He owned Eternity’s power rolled back That oh so heavy stone So you too also may Be allowed to step out of Your own emptied grave!!
