Blessing the April Showers

It’s Holy Week here at Old Stone Well Farm and I wish I could share with you fields of daffodils and tulips, but we have been having some fickle weather. Warm temps make the peepers sing loudly one day and then the next an ice storm captures the limbs of my hydrangea. Just when I thought we would get a taste of spring, the snow comes.

The weather, though, reminded me of just how much I need our Savior who died for us. You see, we are just as fickle as the weather, struggling to remain steadfast in our faith that God is indeed working a miracle in our lives. So this week, which is the holiest of weeks for Christians, I am cutting the pussy willows to wave a branches on Palm Sunday, and then I am going to be walk slowly, listen carefully and still my racing mind so that I can be attentive to all the God is saying to me — and to you.

Come and join me as I prepare for Easter…there are some surprises amid the rain, ice and snow as miracles of life surprised me on my walk. How are you holding on to faith these days? How many times have you whispered to God, “Hosanna!” which means “save us”? But more importantly, do you believe that showers in life are blessings and that God is still at work on your miracle? Let me know how you are preparing for Easter’s new life?

Like, comment and share…and remember to watch till the end as Fritz would love to see you! Blessings!
