A Springtime Prayer

“Deep roots never doubt that spring will come.”

Marty Rubin

Spring is coming! Let’s pray.

Father, as we take a breath today, we thank you that Spring is coming! Early signs are appearing in my yard. My daffodils do not seem to care that it’s been a tough year, they’re just shooting up out of the cold, dark soil like it is their job. And I guess that’s what it is. You gave the lowly daffodil the hard work of ushering in Spring. Thank you for the daffodils!

For those without a sign of Spring to hold onto - grant them a memory of Spring in their heart! We all could use a little encouragement right about now. Thank you for choosing cherry blossoms and dogwoods, crocuses and buttery yellow sun streaming through windows to remind us that you are still at work and things will change.

Amen
