Spring is just around the corner!

As I'm sitting here at my computer, I am looking out the window into my backyard and noticing all of the plants and trees that are beginning to bloom. I don't know about you, but I am so ready for spring weather. Not too hot, but not too cold. Isn't God awesome that He allows us to see His hand in nature with the new growth that is sprouting out everywhere? A lot of us think about this time of year as a time to do spring cleaning in our homes. We take time to brush the cobwebs off the porch, clean out our closets and give our homes a feeling of spring freshness. I like to think that God wants us to do the same with our spiritual lives. Does your life need a little spring cleaning? Do you need to brush off the cobwebs of your Bible or devotional book? Do you need to clean out your mind of thoughts and attitudes that are not pleasing to God? Does your life reflect a Spring freshness because you are in contact daily with God? I challenge you to look at your life as spring approaches and ask God what He would want you to do to freshen up your relationship with Him.
