20140327-134124.jpgYesterday was an all around bad day. The kids were crabby, the house needed attention, Satan was feeding me lies, and another cold day stuck inside all made me feel overwhelmed and discouraged.

After telling my husband I was struggling, he asked what he could do. I told him I’d love some fresh flowers so I could have a visible sign of hope.

When I walked downstairs this morning and saw my beautiful bouquet on the table, I was reminded of this:
God is making all things new. He thaws not only the cold ground but also our hardened hearts. The winter is past and spring is on the horizon. Just as He uses the seasons to prepare the earth for planting and growing, He’s using the good and bad days of our lives to prepare us to produce fruit that furthers the Kingdom.

Today is a new day. May we all cling to the hope we have in Christ, and remember He is making all things new!

XOXO,

Amber
