He has conquered the grave. We even had a few hours of sunshine here today as well. A Happy Easter to all and may we all meet the Risen Jesus in some way over the next few days and weeks.
Happy Easter! This time last year I picked a whole bouquet of flowers from my spring garden, but this year that is not the case. However, something was there to greet me this Easter morning...to remind me that no matter how tiny or hard to find, God's beauty and renewed life is here, He is risen, and it is time to rejoice!

Only the snow crocus has appeared, and they are so tiny that they are easy to miss. But when you go in for a closeup, they are very beautiful and scream out spring! The daffodils and tulips are still a couple weeks away at best.
