In early Spring, I love to go around poking under the dead leaves of my flower and herb beds …looking for new life. There hiding under the old vegetation are shoots of green chives and pink rhubarb, and lacy bleeding heart. It never fails to amaze and lift my spirits after a cold, hard Winter than to see life rising out of the ground. It’s as if the Lord is saying to me, “See, I’m doing a new thing… the old is gone…new life is springing up!”
