Oh Lord, we come to You as we prepare for spring. Let this time be a time of renewing not only on the Earth, but in our minds and souls. Help us to turn our faces to You as a flower turns its face to the sun. Let fresh green shoots of faith and love grow in us as we press in closer to You and allow You to prune the dead and stagnant branches from our lives. We want to be like the tree planted by the stream, always in contact with the Source of life.

Psalm 1.1-3 NIV
“Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers.”
Help us to remember that You are our provider. You take care of Your children and we have no need to worry. When we start to feel anxious or try to take things into our own hands, we can turn back to You and put our trust in You. We can put our troubles in Your hands and rest.
Matthew 6.25-27 NIV
“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?”
Remind us of your love and care every day, even as the world around us feels increasingly inhospitable and cold. Show us how to love others as ourselves and be the hands and feet of Jesus to a world who desperately needs it.
St. Teresa of Ávila
“Christ has no body now on earth but yours, no hands but yours, no feet but yours. Yours are the eyes through which to look out Christ’s compassion to the world. Yours are the feet with which he is to go about doing good; Yours are the hands with which he is to bless men now.”
Lord, please draw close and help us to draw close to You. Renew us, and make this a spring season in our lives. Revive the cold and dead parts of our faith and open our eyes to all You are doing in the Earth. Show us the parts You have given us to play and the works You have given us to do. May You be given all the glory and all the honor and all the praise. Amen.
