March awakens the sleeping beauty of spring!

I am not a fan of cold weather! Ask anyone who knows me and they will tell you that I absolutely loathe it. Now don't get me wrong, I love winter. Winter brings Christmas, extra time with my family, and a timeline of birthday celebrations in January and February. I love the season, but am not too keen on the cold weather. This winter has brought some frigid temperatures to what's supposed to be the south. How do you have 9 degree weather in the south? Not to worry though. God has a plan and that plan is called Spring!

When God touches the earth and awakens the trees, the flowers and grass the whole world comes to life. The rainbow palette that God uses to saturate the Earth with color is used to paint a picture of the world bursting with color. When I think of Spring, I'm reminded of a line by Shoug Avery in on of my favorite movies, The Color Purple. "More than anything God love admiration. I think it pisses God off when you walk by the colour purple in a field and don't notice it."

God created everything on earth in it's colorful state for us to delight in. Because He is the Master of Creation, we enjoy crimson roses, rolling green meadows and brillant purple poppy fields. So this Spring, take some time to enjoy the beauty that God created.

Blessings,

Angela
