Easter has come and gone- we remember and rejoice! He is risen! As we try to live each day in Easter Joy and be a Resurrection people we scatter joy amidst the gloomy rainy days and choose to remember that hope must be fed, tended to and nurtured. We think of Jesus's words from Luke 24 "Why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your hearts? See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself." We've had busy days and mundane days. We've painted eggs and practiced piano, learned and danced and now we wait for a warm spring. We see a fresh green paint the trees as they come alive and the blooms poke up through the dirt after a long rest. But oh we are so ready.
