Prelude to Heaven or Happy Last Day of April

Happy Last Day of April!Growth is beginning!Though sometimes it feels slow in coming we know...Gen.8:22“As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease.” and that's just the beginning of hope!!because... 1 Cor.15:19If only for this life we have hope in Christ,we are of all people most to be pitied. To rush the thorn with blushing rose... Behold, after the winter, Spring!The barren bough runs rifeWith gold and green embellishingEach treetop with new life Like an ocean-tide ebbs and flowsSo too the seasons surgeTo rush the thorn with blushing roseLike daybreak's virgin verge Hope orchestrates a holy hymnIn both nature and heartsBehold the blossom-furbished limbThe kiss of sun imparts Behold God's covenant fulfilledAnd the prelude to Heaven spilledIn bud and birds refrains Janet Martin
