May
Every good and
perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights,
who does not change like shifting shadows. -James 1:17
This month of May seems be filled with many wonderful
things. Graduations and weddings are on
the calendar. The long awaited vacation is coming soon and beaches are becoming
dotted with colorful umbrellas more and more each day. Winter has lifted its veil and given way to
the light and freshness of spring. Vegetable gardens are being prepared and
flower beds are freshly weeded and mulched just in time for vivid annuals to be
planted. New starts, new beginnings, and new things awaits us this month.
God is the giver of life. Appreciate His Gifts to us. The tiny
birds that show up to my feeder with their parents reminds me how great God is.
The wonder of a little child splashing in the waves with his shovel and bucket
brings a smile for the innocence we are born with. Picking buttercups and
filling a grocery bag full for a homemade Mother’s Day bouquet evokes sweet childhood
memories. A friend battling a serious
illness just celebrated his birthday. He is an inspiration to everyone for his
laughter, joy and appreciation of each day. Some of us dread birthdays but we
must realize they are a gift. Meaning, God has gifted us with another year of
precious life.
