This is a painting I did a long time ago, and gave to a friend, who reminds me of it almost every time I see him. The painting came to my attention today, when I was looking for something on my computer. Being that we are in the redbud season of the year I thought I would post it.
Our redbuds have already started blooming almost a month early. In fact spring is here in Oklahoma already. I look out in my backyard and the daffodils, crocuses, and hyacinths are blooming everywhere. Lots of flowers on the plum and peach tree, and I pray that it won’t freeze so we can have an abundant crop of fruit this year, but you never know in Oklahoma. The weather can change dramatically. It’s hard not to get your hopes up.
“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” Romans 15:13
