Lillacs as the buds begin to open

 We never know what the future holds. Why is it we think we do? Why do we think that life should go on - day by day ... always the same.

 Change is usually pretty challenging. It's hard in the fall to say goodbye to all the flowers as they wither and die.  But how awesome is spring with the joy of newness and possibilities.

Today I am thanking God for His constant faithfulness and the peace and comfort I have been surrounded with the last couple of weeks.

Okay - enough of being sad and depressed. It's time to move on and be strong and confident and quit worrying!!

I know I am not an eagle. And guess what? Those are not eagles in the photo either. (You didn't think they were did you?) Although they look pretty when they fly - the Canada Goose  sure can be a messy bird!

But, God didn't say we would 'BE EAGLES.' He said "Those who hope in the Lord will soar LIKE eagles."

I am not an eagle.

Goodness, I am not even a bird. I don't have wings ... but I'm ready to soar.

I am ready to run and not get tired, to walk and not be faint.

I am ready to have my strength renewed.
