Spring signals a change in the atmosphere. In Oklahoma, the changing temperature is dramatic. One day we are feeling like summer and the next we have to bundle up from the cold. Changing seasons can bring about turmoil. That is my least favorite thing about Spring in Oklahoma.
But the best part of Spring for me is the budding plants that spring from dormancy with the Spring rains. The first drops of rain, neglected earth laps up life giving waters. The rain soaks thirsty lands and settles at once dusty roots to inspire new growth. Man and beasts alike sigh in relief at Heaven’s provision. What sustains you friends? What gives you life?
“Let us acknowledge the LORD;
let us press on to acknowledge him.
As surely as the sun rises, he will appear; he will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth.” Hosea 6:3
