Spring 08

Sometime in October, I wrote about The Coming Spring. I guess in the depth of Autumn and the beginnings of Winter, I was kind of looking forward to Spring. Bouncing Spring. Hope-filled Spring. Colourful Spring.

Well, somehow prophetically, a new and good beginning comes this Spring. Who says Jehovah does not see, hear, or knows?
And in exuberant expectation, I commissioned a painting under the theme of New Beginnings. The artist, Nana Anoff, presented me with this delightful hope filled artwork.
Even the frame Nana used to hold the piece, a replica French window, is symbolic of open doors. The artwork speaks volumes to my spirit every time I look at it: 8 Golden Eggs - eight, the number for new beginnings -even in 2008. Eggs - representing opportunities. Green grass - representing fertility. Baobab tree in the background - representing stability. Skyscrapers - the sky is the limit

This spiring, I am embracing new and good beginnings, new opportunities, fertility, stability and reaching forth to what's before me in Christ Jesus.
