Spring

"When our hearts are wintry, grieving, or in pain, Love's touch can call us back to life again, fields of our hearts that dead and bare have been: Love is come again like wheat that springeth green"
Hymn words by John MacLeod Campbell Crum

I always look forward to Spring when the earth is renewed and flowers, birds and insects return.  In recent years, it has also brought renewal to my life as I focus on gardening and home improvements and take my mind off my troubles.

This year I am just not getting there.  I am growing vegetables and I am cleaning house, but my heart and mind continue to ache.  Even on the best of days, I don't feel the love.

My posts are usually more upbeat and insight filled.  I saw this hymn verse today at church and it really spoke to where I'd like to be. 

I would appreciate your thoughts and prayers.
