A Spring Sort of Mind

I've been thinking of the spring trees lately. Magnolias, flowering cherries, peaches and plums. I have been in a spring sort of mind.



I guess I've been in a sort of pink frame of mind. It's better than wallowing in the winter doldrums that have been plaguing me.



Winter has always been difficult for me. Not enough sunshine, cabin fever, all that. But having this to look forward to makes it a little easier.



Because who doesn't love the smell of magnolias, the waft of lilacs as you walk by?



Who doesn't smile and feel a little fuzzy about bees, heavy with nectar from the mock orange, days laying in the grass with the heady spring breeze?



So I will stay in a spring sort of mind - a time of renewal, a time of love, a time of new hope, a time of resurrection.

A Baby Changes Everything

By Faith Hill

Teenage girl, much too young
Unprepared for what's to come
A baby changes everything

Not a ring
On her hand
All her dreams and all her plans
A baby changes everything



The man she loves she's never touched
How will she keep his trust
A baby changes everything

And she cries, oh she cries

She has to leave, go far away
Heaven knows she can't stay
A baby changes everything



She can feel it's coming soon
There`s no place, there`s no room
A baby changes everything



And she cries and she cries o she cries

Shepherds all gather round
Up above a star shines down
A baby changes everything



Choir of angels say
Glory to the newborn king
A baby changes everything
Everything, everything, every day



HALLELUJAH!

My whole life is turned around
I was lost and now i`m found
A baby changes everything



""I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die." John 11:25 - 26

Merry Christmas - May His love shine down on you today and always.

Maunday Thursday

It is Maunday Thursday, the day of The Last Supper. A day to reflect on what the Easter season is really all about. A friend sent this video via Facebook. I was moved to tears. It is beautiful, incredibly sad, and glorious all at the same time. Watch it. There will be nothing more for me to say.
