"Look, the winter is past, and the rains are over and gone. The flowers are springing up, the season of singing birds has come, and the cooing of turtledoves fills the air." Song of Solomon 2:11-12— NLT
Spring is a time of new beginnings, and it's also a time to reflect on the goodness of God. The world around us is coming to life, and we can see the hand of God in it all.
The trees are budding, the flowers bloom, and the birds sing. All these things are a reminder of the beauty and order God created.

Spring is a time of joy. We are happy to be alive and so glad to see the world around us coming to life.
Spring is a time of love. We love the beauty of the world and the people in our lives.
