Spring!

There is something in the first couple of days of Spring that is magical!  The grass turns from death white to flourishing green, the birds sing with zeal, the squirrels are out and about playing, people are walking and talking with smiles and without coats!  It seems as tho new breath has been spread across the earth and life has emerged with great zeal and joy.
Today I walked outside and found the weather to be amazing, just like what was described above.  I decided to go for a run.  It was a little painful for the slightly cold air to hit the lungs but it was rejuvenating and the more I ran the warmer it got.  It was great running around the Burg and seeing other runners, children in the parks, and families off and about.  Looking around seeing the trees start to get the small buds that will soon be in full blossom.  It is great to see the creations of God in full work and reaching for their full beauty!  It is a glorious day that God has given us to enjoy!
Spring is here and the life of the outside world is Back!

Today is the Day

Today is the day in which we throw off the old and put on the new.  The day in which we become new creatures having Christ help in doing so.  What is to be done with life?  It is to be loved, cherished, enjoyed; we are to learn, grow, have experiences, take chances, never give in, and continually become the best person we can.
How do we obtain the most out of this life?  By having a firm foundation.  How are we to obtain this firm foundation?  By building upon the Rock of Christ!  Christ is immovable, steadfast, sure, and always safe.  Any who have tried to build, even a part, of their foundation out of something that is not based in Christ have found that it becomes unsure and that it quakes at the very sight of anything new.  With Christ their is peace and safety.  Christ is not limiting but is the Great Emancipator of our Souls!  There we can expound our knowledge, abilities, and joy!
