How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings...for with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light. Psalm 36:7,9
Don't you just love Springtime! As we drive down the streets we see all of the magnificently gorgeous blooming trees, the majestic colors of the flowers blooming among the fragrant, newly cut green lawns of neighborhood yards, and the satiating scents of it all wafting on the cool breezes. I just love Spring!
God must truly love it, too, because He is the author of it all. As the Psalmist declared, "For with thee is the fountain of life..." Springtime reminds us of new life we find in Christ. It reminds us of Christ's death and resurrection. It gives us hope that when we are buried at the cold winter of death, life will spring forth at the rapturous resurrection, and we will spend eternity in the eternal Springtime of Heaven with the giver of eternal life!
I suppose that is why I love Springtime so much. It brings all of my senses and purpose back to focus on the thoughts of new life in the Lord Jesus Christ. We can truly see the light of life. Praise God for SPRING!
