Spring is a time where the world explodes with rebirth. This means that a sense of freshness and light has begun. It is at this time that I am reminded that God’s work is everywhere. His tapestry is the world: the new blossom on a tree, the morning dew on a budding flower and even the crisp breeze that brings the promise of warm weather. The awakening of the world around me brings about a re-awakening and a renewed appreciation of God.
This springtime is unique with my ten-month-old daughter who makes my heart leap for joy. Such perfection! God is so kind and merciful to grant us this beautiful gift of life! She is a constant reminder of God’s magnificence: to love unconditionally, to smile through tears, instantly forget any offense, to love God’s creatures and to see the good in all people. This is what my daughter teaches me over and over again everyday.
With the freshness of spring, my marriage is also seen fresh in the light of day. I am reminded to see my husband as I did when we dated, so we play more, laugh more and love more. The daily stresses of finances, childcare and chores around the house are forgotten, so that I can be carefree. God shows Himself to me through Tim, that is in his smile, his touch, and in the tender way he cares for Adriana. I feel God’s closeness to me and my heart is filled with happiness.
