Nadine, the dog whisperer

It is so crazy that in some parts of the world people are preparing for winter, putting on winter windows, getting the snow blower greased up, putting away the patio furniture, and pulling out the winter clothes including the gloves, coats, and hats with ear muffs.

It is just the opposite from most of the U. S here in Scottsdale. We are coming out of our dens where the air conditioning has been blasting non stop for 5 plus months. We are coming into our summer where we can come outside and enjoy warm (not hot) weather. The convertible tops are coming off and gardens are being planted replete with pansies and petunias.

It’s like The Lord in many respects.  There times of winter where it seems that nothing is growing and we are imprisoned in the coldness of our circumstances with little hope of emerging from the darkness of life.  As we seek Him, he comes to us and begins to show us hope for the future and for our lives and spring begins to break through like the daffodils and tulips.  What is important to remember about the Lord is that there will always be spring and summer with hope and color if we only keep our focus on Him.

So today as we got all the flowers planted in the rich miracle grow soil, Rejoice no matter what circumstances you are experiencing because God has something special in store for those who seek him.

Read James 1:2-4 and II Chronicles 16:9 for words of encouragement.  BLOOM where you are planted today.
