Precursor to the Ultimate New

Don't you just love spring?  The newness of life is all around.  Fresh color and new buds and blossoms penetrate all senses.  Everything seems full of promise and hope.  The bleak and colorless winter has passed once again.  I guess it always does.  Thank you God for seasons....both physical and spiritual.


I love that God gets giddy about making things new.  "He who was seated on the throne said, 'I am making everything new!' Then he said, 'Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true."   Rev. 21:5.  Can't you just hear the excitement in His voice?   I think the newness we get to experience via seasons and spiritual growth is just a precursor to the day that Jesus will truly make all things new when the old order of things has passed away and the glorious newness has come...whatever that looks like!  Don't you just love that He gives us a tiny taste of whatever that is going to be!  He has created us to enjoy the fresh and new so that we will fall head over heels in love with the true new one day.

today, I love this new baby girl...



 a new yellow daisy...


new pink azalea buds...

and new dogwood blooms!


What are you enjoying that is new?
