On this brisk April morning with the sun shining we realize we are embarking on a new season. A season filled with rebirth and renewal. The chill shall soon be gone and a warm breeze will replace it. The birds are chirping with glory to the Lord for overcoming the winter. The frogs are hollering to say thank-you to God for waking them up. Hibernation will soon be over and all God's creatures will be up and about their business.
We have just celebrated the most Holy of Days and that is the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. He has promised us the same resurrection one day, free from all sin and care. He took all that to the cross with Him when he gave His life for our sins. Have you accepted that free gift He so lovingly offered to each of us? Do you believe?
Do you know Him this morning? Are you feeling renewed, have you been reborn with the Holy Spirit? If not what about right now. God is as close as your next breath. Ask Him to forgive your sins and be willing to do whatever He asks of you in acceptance of Him. Then pick up your cross and follow Him. (Matthew 16:24) He tells us in His Word that His yoke is easy and His burden is light.(Matthew 11:30) If you will believe in Him you will have everlasting life.(John 3:36) If God's little creatures believe in Him and give Him praise surely the least we can do is acknowledge Him in our life and confess Him to others. Then you will grow as the spring flowers grow and you will show fruit as the fruit trees do. Some will bear a hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.(Matthew 13:8) You will not be barren but will bring forth new growth as this season does. Let us rejoice and be glad in this beautiful day that the Lord has given to each of us. Make your committment to Jesus Christ today.
