Easter Reflections
With OUR EYES we see
The beauty of Easter
as the earth awakens once more...
With OUR EARS we hear
The birds sing sweetly
to tell us Spring again is here...
The birds sing sweetly
to tell us Spring again is here...
With OUR HANDS we pick
the golden daffodils
and the fragrant hyacinths...
But only with OUR HEARTS
can we feel the MIRACLE of GOD'S LOVE
which redeems all men...
And only with OUR SOUL
the golden daffodils
and the fragrant hyacinths...
But only with OUR HEARTS
can we feel the MIRACLE of GOD'S LOVE
which redeems all men...
And only with OUR SOUL
can we make our 'pilgrimage to God'
and inherit His Easter Gift of ETERNAL LIFE.

Jeanne, this is lovely. My ears are listening to the birds singing early this morning. They are heralding the joy of life.
I just put my brisket in the oven. I am downstairs now enjoying my cup of coffee. I'll prepare breakfast after everyone else is up for the day. I still need to set the table. I was going to do it yesterday, but I had more on my agenda than I had time.
Happy Easter, my dear friend. I love you all very much.

Thank you for this gift, Jeanne.
The sights and sounds---the birdsong and windchimes outside the open windows, the sun streaming down the stairs, the anticipation of this Glorious Day---our hearts swell full in gratitude.

I'm playing catch-up this morning, Jeanne. I had a good Easter and am feeling better every day. I trust you had a good one too.
He is Risen, indeed!
