Rejoice in the Spring-time of the year. Let there be Spring-time in your hearts. The full time of fruit is not yet but there is the promise of the blossom.
Know surely that your lives too are full of glad promise. Such blessings are to be yours. Such joys, such wonders.
All is indeed well. Live in My Sunshine and My Love.

Spring-time
in Oklahoma can mean just about anything. Cool temperatures. Warm weather. Dry
conditions. Unceasing rain.
Yet two variables seem constant lately: unrelenting winds, and always, the
possibility of serious storms.
The terrifying, destructive storms that hit across the southern states earlier this week left Oklahoma untouched this
time. And in spite of the wind that comes
sweeping down the plains, just like the song “Oklahoma” promises, we’ve had gorgeous
weather… mostly sunshine, beautiful cloud formations, and temperatures in the upper 50s and low 60s.
Much like
the capricious Oklahoma weather, life can and does change in an instant. Without
any warning, a storm can quickly develop, wrap its arms around me, and literally
change my life forever.
Now be
honest. What did you imagine when you read that sentence—something terrible or
something amazing and good?
Change can be either, or both!
On this
#SmallMerciesMiércoles, I choose to be grateful for exactly that, the change
itself.
Whether good,
bad, or yet unknown—I entrust it all to the One who loves me most, best, and
forever.
