If anyone is in CHRIST, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.
(2 Corinthians 5:17, NKJV)

The winter season is over --
The darkness has gone,
Heavenly light awaits!

Thank You, LORD,
For growing me in that piercing darkness --
Drawing me ever closer to you,
Upholding me ever so tenderly
By Your almighty righteous right hand.

It's Spring time!
It's Resurrection time!
i'm breaking new ground --
i'm putting forth new leaves,
i'm ready to bloom!

Thank You, LORD,
For nourishing me with Your gracious light --
Shielding me from harm,
Leading me ever forward
With Your almighty righteous right hand.

The Gardener Sows, But GOD Gives The Increase

Sayote
i planted, Apollos watered, but GOD gave the increase. (I Corinthians 3:6)

So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but GOD who gives the increase. (I Corinthians 3:7)

Chinese Cabbage
Now he who plants and he who waters are one, and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor. (I Corinthians 3:8)

String Beans
For we are GOD's fellow workers; you are GOD's field, you are GOD's building. (I Corinthians 3:9)

Keep planting the seeds of the Word of GOD; keep sowing the seeds of the Good News -- the Holy SPIRIT of GOD will do the rest. He will give the increase...He will reap the harvest.

The BIRDS -- Alfred Hitchcock...NOT!

Birds of the same feather, flock together.

Better to dwell in a corner of a housetop, than in a house shared with a contentious woman! (Proverbs 21:9) Been there, done that!

Livin' on the edge...how many of us live on the edge -- believing that we won't fall off that narrow ledge, that we'll be given wings to escape from certain destruction; or that GOD will rescue us from that fatal slip to that long descent to rock-hard bottom...

You've heard it said that when Life gives you lemons, make lemonade. This bird (and others that i saw but didn't get photographed) made "lemonade" out of the cold and wet situation -- he took it as an opportunity for a bird bath!
