Spring Colors

I love the colors of spring. But today it is rainy and it makes for a gray-blue day. Then I realized that life is like that. There are beautiful spring days with new growth, new colors, new shapes and then some rain must fall or the beauty would die. How does this thought transfer to life? Is it in the gray-blue that we stop to recognize where the real joy lies in the colors of spring? No, God, You might be doing something here but honestly, I like the spring days of warm weather, green grass and new flowers. Can it please be dryer weather tomorrow? And mostly sunny. Maybe You think I'm not done wandering in the dessert but I think I'm more than ready to cross into the Promise Land. How's that for positive thinking???

"I'm not going to take the position of victim any longer. I'm raising my voice with a war cry and claiming victory. I will not be oppressed but will be triumphant." Someone remind me of this if I get whiny again:) :)
