Spring -- Things seem possible or

overwhelming or ..........

Spring is designed to be a fresh start with one of the major decisions of the day to be dress light or for warmth. Went to church this morning in my winter coat as a frost was on the ground. After church I took the coat off with temperatures much higher and the sun busily basting the earth around me in warmth.

Even when there is so much to do, it is refreshing and energizing to take a peak to see sprouts peaking from the ground, spring birds are back and chirping and evenings stay light longer.

There were 4 baby dedications at church today - fresh starts.
More than 4 people entered the Welcome Center to get more information and possibly make a connection - fresh starts.
A friend of mine appeared. We have not seen each other in quite a few years. A delightful, fresh start.

Spring is here. A fresh start.

Suggestion: If overwhelmed - make or take a fresh start. It might sound simple, yet sometimes doing something differently although can be, also may take some strong determination, and,
a fresh start.

HAPPY SPRING!!! "Squeeze joy from each minute time does not return yet memories do."

Hi Susan---Josh of TN love this post like your concept of fresh start. Each day is a fresh start as we wait for God to provide us what he wants us to accomplish the next day.

The picture is amazing and love that bird. The bird pops as it is center of attention. Another brillian picture by your friend the photographer. My wife and i have been a follower of yours now for over 3 yrs. You have blessed us with such a warm and compassionate voice to us. You provide glorious insights and suggestions and how to just simply be who we are.

We look forward to hearing more from you and seeing more pictures. How is that seminar coming along as i have read older comments and is your book in the works yet.

God has certainly chosen you as the vessel and provides such words of glory and done all through grace as you shine through your words that God gives you

Hey girl Roy here how the heck are you doing. Another remarkable post. Fresh start is so true seeing Gods creations pop out from the dirt and breathing fresh life into the plants again. Also like when you need that jump start someone shows up and provides encouraging words to keep going and you can do it. Sometimes that is all that one needs and a kind word and compassion.

Again a tremendous picture by your friend love it love it love it they continue getting more and more detailed this bird has been well fed lol. Great job.

Hey girl so when are we going to hear about a seminar of such as i keep reading the commenting as others have asked so it's my turn to ask. Fresh start is also giving yourself up to god as a good friend of ours gave a husband and wife gave themselves to the lord at a few weeks back at a church call Browncroft Community Church have you heard of this one. My wife and I came up to see them baptized and we sat through the service. I think the pastor's name is Pastor Rob something like that i think. What a wonderful church and the energy that it provides and that is certainly a fresh start and what better way and having God be a part of your life. The presence of God was certainly in the church and with everyone in it.

Let us know when your seminar and or book come our and if your friend is showing there pictures somewhere

Great job

Hi Susan--Brenda of NJ aren't baby dedication beautiful. God's presence fills the air and nothing like raising your children up knowing God. Yes they will choose the path that is right for them. I can only hope they will follow the path of God. I have 2 boys 8 and 9yrs old and they are so on fire for the lord i pray that it continues.

Brilliant writings and you continue to shine through God our family has been followers of yours for over 2 yrs. Your writings are encouraging, uplifting, suggestions that take thinking upon. Your a remarkable writer.

You photographer outdid themselves again. The bird really ate well and how it and love the picture as we do with all of them. The details are joyous.
