March 31, 2013, Easter Sunday...Good morning! A  blessed and happy Easter to our knitters and wrappers, may you be uplifted by the joy of the risen Christ!


The Miracles of Easter
The sleeping earth awakens,
The robins start to sing
The flowers open wide their eyes
To tell us it is spring
The bleakness of the winter
Is melted by the sun,
The tree that looked so stark and dead
Becomes a living one
These Miracles of Easter,
Wrought with divine perfection
Are the blessed reassurance
Of our Savior's Resurrection.

Sunday, March 24, 2013....Palm Sunday of the Passion of the Lord



"God bestowed upon Him the name which is above every other name, that at the name of Jesus, every knee shall bend..of those in heaven and on earth and under the earth every tongue shall confess Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father.

Sunday, March 10 - Fourth Sunday of Lent


After the storm this week, I discovered this beautiful poem by Clay Harrison and thought we all could use a little sunshine, flowers, hope and faith....enjoy!
       Buried Treasure
 
Beneath the snows of Winter
Spring treasures can be found
in seeds that lie there sleeping
below the frozen ground
 
While snow falls in the meadow
the rose must get her rest
soon Spring will kiss his princess
and she must look her best
 
All earth proclaims God's glory
when Spring is in the air
each bud fulfills a promise
each rose an answered prayer
 
Spring is a resurrection
Winter's stone is rolled away
to reveal God's buried treasure
each sun-kissed spring-time day
