The Life Giver

"I have come that they may have life..." (John 10:10)

For the past several months now we've seen trees with no leaves, grass that's dead, and lifeless surroundings in nature. Over the past few days something has taken place. Life! Tree's now are budding! Life is springing up through the ground! Green is popping up everywhere! Things that were once dead are now alive! God has brought life through the Spring season that is approaching!

At one time, we too were without life. We too were once "dead in our sins." Formless, void, empty, lifeless! We were like the tree's with no leaves and the dead brown grass with no green. Like nature in the winter, we too appeared not to be coming back to life. Dead. Without hope. That is until God sent Jesus Christ to bring life to us! We are now alive in Christ Jesus! We are like the fresh Spring season! New! Fresh! Alive!

I encourage you as you drive down the road the next few days to notice all the "life" that God is bringing through Spring and thank him for the "new life" he has given you through Christ!

Be blessed!
