Ah, how wonderful is the advent of the Spring!—the great annual miracle.... which no force can stay, no violence restrain, like love, that wins its way and cannot be withstood by any human power, because itself is divine power. If Spring came but once in a century, instead of once a year, or burst forth with the sound of an earthquake, and not in silence, what wonder and expectation would there be in all hearts to behold the miraculous change!... We are like children who are astonished and delighted only by the second-hand of the clock, not by the hour-hand. ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. Colossians 1:16

Everything is blooming most recklessly; if it were voices instead of colors, there would be an unbelievable shrieking into the heart of the night. ~Rainer Maria Rilke

Recently the weather has been turning so beautiful, with sunshine-y days and gentle breezes, mixed in with a few gray days.  It's been a real spring, which is a welcome feeling from this past winter.  Like honestly, there is real green grass growing again, and it looks amazing.  Spring has got to be one of the most wonderful seasons - a time of renewal and freshness of life.  That's why I wanted to dedicate a post to spring, it's just so beautiful.  And the fact that the One who made all this still cares us - wow. I took all these pictures over the course of this past week, and it's been funny to see how much the weather changes in one week.  From summer weather down to dreary, wet days, and then back into the 60s...pretty cool.  And then I found some amazing quotes about spring, which, how could I resist showing you guys? =P

have a amazing week  ♥
