Winter's spring cleaning...

It may be winter but I have begun spring cleaning.  Although my present projects are small steps, there will be more time for larger projects when spring arrives. It also gives me opportunity to do something now that represents hope and belief in what lies ahead.

I began thinking.  Life's journey is a beautiful gift but also includes challenging seasons.  Yet it is important to realize that each step takes us closer to a time of no more illness, pain, sadness or sorrows.  Holding onto hope and celebrating life, love and joy are tremendous opportunities to continually seize and cherish.  

When I see the bright sun in the sky, I am reminded of Who placed it there.  When I hear snow dripping off the roof, I remember Who brings warmth into my heart.  When I wrap up in layers to face brutal temperatures, I realize that He is holding me each moment.  When I see my breath in cold air, I have no doubt Who faithfully gives me each one.  When I see small projects completed before spring, I am certain that He will bring new life, new beauty and new opportunities beyond what I presently face.

It may be winter...but I believe...in hope, love, Him...and spring.<3~thl
