Rejoice for Winter is Past

My lover spoke and said to me, "Arise, my darling, my beautiful one, and come with me. See! The winter is past; the rains are over and gone.

Song of Solomon 2:10-11


For someone who loves to write, I seem to be the absolute worst blogger when it comes to finding the time to write down all the things in my spirit. My silence over this past winter is not because I have nothing to say. I am simply speechless listening to what God is saying. So for the two or three people that actually read this blog, have patience with me. I shall return to write it all down. For now, just know that God is far from silent. I start to write it down and then something happens:

I stop. I pause for just a moment. And then I am overwhelmed.

Selah.

At the end of March I was driving home and looked up to see Canada geese flying overhead. Tears filled my eyes and I whispered, "winter is past". As the words escaped my lips, I knew that I had just declared something far more significant that the seasonal transition from winter to spring.
