I felt it when I woke up this morning. It was there ever so slightly yesterday …or maybe the day before. It’s so subtle it’s hard to tell.<\/p>\n

Lighter outside at 6:30, I’ve been hearing birds singing early. The day still has a chill, but the sun is brighter. I can see small changes in my yard. I sneezed a few times mid-afternoon and was reminded to take that tiny white tablet that slowly builds up in my system before<\/i>\u00a0the pollen accumulates and causes me big trouble.<\/p>\n

It’s happening! Slowly, slowly. The birth of a new season. Only the beginnings. But here in the south it doesn’t take much. It won’t be many weeks before green things show and flowers bud.<\/p>\n

It’s the way of God also. Just when all seems bleak and hopeless… joy comes. Quietly, softly, hearts begin to change. And then you see<\/i> something different. Something new -that wasn’t there before.<\/p>\n

He’s been working all along. Knitting behind the scene. Using everything.<\/b> That’s His way! To reveal the miracles of new life and new growth.\u00a0As I wait.<\/p>\n

I will see life<\/em>. A shift is coming!<\/p>\n
