Spring has Sprung!

Let the celebration of Spring begin!  ‘Hallelujahs’ and ‘Thanks be to Gods’ have been shouted all day by those of us in Minnesota who have had what has been dubbed the never-ending Winter of 2013.  Open windows, kids playing outside in shorts, bike riding, walking, running, and SMILING people!  A full day of sunshine does wonders!  Praise you, Dear Lord, for the sunshine and the full moon, the budding trees and the sprouting plants.  Help the transformation from winter spring us into fresh expressions of life.  Thanks be to you for the brightness and warmth of this day.  Amen.
