Victorious Spring

12/30/2012

0 Comments

 
Although in winter we may look out upon the barrenness of the landscape, and hear outside the doleful sound of the wind stirring dead leaves on the ground, we need not  be disheartened. We can resist borrowing the bleak lines in that outer world, allowing them to color our heart views, and instead guard in our hearts a sure sense of the presence of God. Knowing He is near, and that despite how things appear, that He is at work for our good, we can be glad. Although the cold and frost seem to hold the earth in an iron fist, Spring is on the way. The frozen streams and rivers soon will be broken free from their icy bonds, yielding to the irresistible power of Spring's warmth. In Spring, life pours itself through myriad channels, and year after marching year Life faithfully shows itself stronger than death.
 
When it seems that evil has triumphed over good, or when the joy of life has fled, take heart. Spring is the harbinger of hope. Just as during the cold, gripping days of winter we can listen deep within us for the sweet minstrel of the coming springtime, so also we can choose to cultivate in our pining spirits an illimitable hope. Reach out, dear friend, for a consciousness of the tender love flowing to you from God. As the Spring is victorious over Winter, so good shall prove to be victorious over evil, and joy over sorrow.
