Well Spring is in the air, and God's loveliness is all around us.
We see his new growth, and new beginnings, Spring is my
favorite season. You know God loved Spring too, he mentioned it in 22 verses in the Bible, even though some of those verses were not the season, but made in speech.
Ecc 3:1 "To everything there is season; and a time to every purpose under heaven"
This verse says it all, everything there is a season, I have found that so true in life, so many things we read in the
holy word of God, we see in every day living, I have lived
many years, and many seasons and have seem very much of this wonderful world God created. I live to tell and share with others what God has allowed in my life, how he helped me to grow into the woman I am today, how he is
forever there and helping us in our daily chores. I found
many years ago that with some prayer our days will go so much better, than if we just rush into things, stop and pray
ask our heavenly Father to help you with the tasks at hand,
you will find how easy things go then on.
I seen that little photo it just pictured this time of year, for some reason Spring depicts bunnies and chicks, and I am
thinking it is the newness of the season. Animals even know the season, all young are born in the Spring, and then have a while to grow and get strong before the Winter comes.
I say I am in the Deep Winter of my years, I feel very young
but in all reality it is Winter for me, at least late Fall, lol but I will be forever Young at heart. There used to be an old song called Young at Heart, it was a wonderful old song, and had such meaning to it. Sung by Frank Sinatra
Young At Heart
Fairy tales can come true, it can happen to you
If you’re young at heart
For it’s hard, you will find, to be narrow of mind
If you’re young at heart
You can go to extremes with impossible schemes
You can laugh when your dreams fall apart at the seams
And life gets more exciting with each passing day
And love is either in your heart or on it’s way
Don’t you know that it’s worth every treasure on earth
To be young at heart
For as rich as you are it’s much better by far
To be young at heart
And if you should survive to 105
Look at all you’ll derive out of being alive
Then here is the best part
You have a head start
If you are among the very young at heart
And if you should survive to 105
Look at all you’ll derive out of being alive
Then here is the best part
You have a head start
If you are among the very young at heart
So remember to sing unto the lord, and enjoy your wonderful season of Spring,
the lord hath made just for us to enjoy.. Be blessed,
and be a blessing.

Young at Heart, that's me too:) Sometimes I can't believe that I am about to be 57... seems impossible! I am so thankful for good health at whatever the age is and I certainly feel MUCH younger than that! Enjoy your day my friend and thanks for this sweet post! HUGS!

What a beautiful post! Certainly brightened my day. Thank you for your lovely comments on my blog, it was so nice of you to visit! I"m leaving here blessed!
When our pastor turned 50, an older member of the church asked if he felt middle-aged. Smiling, Pastor said, "Yes." "How many 100-year-olds do you know?" was the response.
Yes, our time has lessened, day by day, but no one knows how much time they have left, therefore we live each day as its own -- enjoying it as we would at any time in our lives.
It is always a pleasure to stop by and visit!!
Beautiful post....I'm also in the deep winter of life and still enjoying all that God has provided. I never tire of seeing a sunset, colorful flowers, puffy white clouds, and on and on...He gave us the most beautiful"art", that can't be imitated....Happy Spring ! !
