Springtime in Texas

I love spring in Texas! Our great state has an abundance of wildflowers each spring. One of my great joys is to drive down the highways and see the palette of color that is the highway right of ways and the fields. To me--there is nothing more beautiful in all of God's creation! Unless it's a rainbow! My husband and I were traveling back home from west Texas on Sunday evening and were treated to the sight of a double rainbow. Easter Sunday and a rainbow--it doesn't get much better!! We celebrated the risen Savior and saw the evidence of God's promises in that spectacular rainbow.

I'm thankful at Easter time--thankful that Jesus laid down His life for me, thankful for the new life that each spring brings, and this year I'm especially thankful for the rain that has fallen. God is good all the time and all the time God is good.

As we come to the close of this school year, I look back and count the blessings that have come my way. Those blessings include a wonderful family and the new grandson that has joined our number, great students, magnificent co-workers, and supportive prayerful parents. I am truly, truly thankful for all the blessings that are mine.
