Let us know, let us strive to know the LORD;
as certain as the dawn is His coming,
and His judgment shines forth like the light of day!
He will come to us like the rain,
like spring rain that waters the earth. ~ Hosea 6: 3
Spring is starting! I know it. I know it differently from the still quiet of the morning, rinsed and blessed by new rains. Before this, my knowing was of hope. Today, it is of certainty. Joy tingles my fingertips. To the physical eye, little has changed from the old hours. Yet, my spirit is curled in the delight of knowing the secret whispered among angels,
Spring is starting!
Suddenly too, emerges a desire, gentle yet sharp, to get my ‘house’ in order.
To clean,
to remove
To rebuild,
to restore.
Spring is starting!
Rejoice!
