The tulips have faded and the lilacs have come and gone. Now the irises are blooming.
The peonies delight me with their layers of petals. Spring has come again.
The rhythm of seasons and immense variety of plants and flowers point to our Creator and his promises.
While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease. Genesis 8:22
God’s word also promises that Jesus will return.
Then will appear in heaven the sign of the Son of Man, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. Matthew 24:30-31
It is good to keep Jesus’ return in mind.
I am joining Five Minute Friday with this week’s prompt: RETURN

My Lilacs came and went so quickly. I’m thankful for the beautiful reminders of God’s creation. I’m in the 69 spot this week.
