I am so thankful to God for this time of year. This time before Spring arrives. The anticipation for Easter and then the culmination with a great celebration of the Resurrection. I think this even trumps Christmas for me. I love Christmas, too, but the New life and new birth and flowers and strawberries that come with Spring just overwhelm me! Thank you God for these simple pleasures and your amazing sacrifice and miracle of your Resurrection that make this season so beautiful!
Hebrews 6: 19, 20 ~ “We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where Jesus, who went before us has entered on our behalf. ”

Beautifully put, Ellen. Thank you too for the powerful verse from Hebrews. May your day be filled with God’s richest blessings.
I love those verses.
Thanks for always blessing my heart dear one.
What a beautiful thought – Christ in the Most Holy Place ministering on our behalf.
Easter coming and all God did for us is a very special part of spring. Thanks for sharing that TT with us.

You have a nice TT and thanks for sharing. TC
Rebirth! That’s a wonderful thing. I love spring too- although we don’t exactly have spring here. But we have this time of the year for rebirth of the greens.
I am all with you for the simple pleasures of life. I love the quote. We so much that anchor in these times of turmoil…
Awesome indeed Ellen! I love Hebrews—am thankful for the Lord going before us…paving the WAY. Thank you for your continued prayers. I feel them. You are a blessing.

You know, Ellen, I have to agree with you. For me Easter is a wonderful celebration – and I kinda like it more than Christmas too 🙂 New life – how amazing it is.
Thank you so much for sharing your grateful heart with us this past week.
Blessings to you and yours…
