March 2, 2022 - We're still 18 days away from the first day of spring, but here in Shelby County, Texas, we're starting to see some signs that the season is changing. And we're grateful to God for that. The beginning of spring, on March 20, falls on Sunday this year. And we're planning a series of devotions during the week prior, that will focus on our Creator and on His creation. Hope you can join us for those thoughts.
The shift from the cold winter wind to the soft breezes of spring is always a refreshing blessing. We've had a fairly mild winter here in Center, so the contrast isn't as dramatic as it sometimes is. But I was thinking this morning that, in a way, the past two years have been a kind of extended winter for our world. The pandemic came home to America just about exactly two years ago now, with schools and churches and businesses shutting down in March of 2020. The cold wind of fear and loss and isolation has blown steadily through our culture during these past 24 months.
We are truly ready for the soft breezes of hope.
We are ready . . . for spring.
Meet you back here tomorrow,
Bro. David
