spring

It's truly Spring here. It has been for a while. But I always forget to share it with  you all. Also, in Alberta we were so often teased with Spring like weather to be surprised with another dump of snow. So I was unbelieving and didn't think Spring was actually here, so early, in the Eastern part of this country. It's beautiful. I LOVE sitting outdoors, with the sun shining and just chilling. I love just having a picnic on the green grass. I love seeing blossom and trees who start getting pretty fresh limegreen leaves. I love spring.

And now it is Easter weekend too. And Im sitting outside!

Yesterday I went to the Devil's Punch Bowl. Recommend it. Look over the city from the escarpment, with a cross lit up and the waterfall. Its gorgeous. Go there.

It was very fitting. As the cross stood on that hill in the distance I thought of the many songs talking about the cross. Good Friday. Christ died on the Cross.
The cross overlooks the city. Where so many people dwell. Where so many people who don't know Jesus live. And yet Jesus died for those people too. He died for us all. He died out of love for us. On the best Friday ever! He died for me too. And therefore I may live...

Also... I got to share this great experience with friends, with brothers and sisters. Brothers and sisters I just met, and who are my family. Because we all have the same Father. What greater days can we have, than be with family praising God while in nature...!

GOD IS SO GOOD!
