In the mornings when I step outside, the birds welcome me and seem to be singing a lovely melody of praise to the God who made them! I think they are singing about the beautiful words in the 2nd chapter of the Song of Solomon:
"For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone;
The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;
The fig tree putteth forth her green figs, and the vines with the tender grape give a good smell. . ."
Solomon also said in the Book of Ecclesiastes: "He hath made everything beautiful in His time. ."
And Timothy tells us in his Epistle that: ". . . God giveth us richly all things to enjoy."
But even more lovely than all the beauty that surrounds us is the beauty within us -- the beauty of Jesus that should be seen in us -- not just in the Springtime, but in every season--every day!
If we will surrender our will to Jesus, He is able to mold us and make us so beautiful and glorious within that those looking on will be hungry for what they see in us!
Does the world see Jesus in you?
