There's Always a Springtime
by Helen Steiner Rice
After the winter comes the spring
To show us again that in everything
There's always a renewal divinely planned.
Flawlessly perfect, the work of God's hand.
And just like the seasons that come and go
When the flowers of spring lay buried in snow,
God sends to the heart in the winter of sadness
A springtime awakening of new hope and gladness.
Oh my, I'm so ready, even desperate, for this awakening from God of new hope and gladness in my heart of sadness. Too many losses, hurts, disappointments, rejection, being misunderstood - Lord, send the breakthrough soon.....for me and my readers who may also be in great need of your tender mercies.....

My mom had a book by Helen Rice or at least it had her poems in it - Leaves of Gold. Love her poems.

Spring is coming.

Good morning... I am finding several things to save but letting many go... I have to use my space to store the right items... Have a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteSpring brings renewal... I love this time of year as the earth wakes and shows all her beauty. I find joy in my crocuses and daffodils as they bloom each year. Take care my friend.
