Rambling: There's the Smell of Spring in the Air, or Is That Just You?

It has been beautiful here for the past three days! We've had temperatures in the sixties and seventies. Thanks be to God for such beautiful weather!
The warm weather has made things enjoyable for the last couple of days.
Soccer practices for the girls' teams have started, and after two days, the teams look good. I'm excited for this season. And the warm weather was such a wonderful blessing. Usually the first practice of girls' season is indoors due to cold, wet weather.
Saturday was a great day to referee a couple of soccer games, and I had the privilege of doing so.
The beautiful, early spring weather has revived my spirit, and reminded me that God never gives up on us. Just as spring follows winter, so joy comes in the morning following a night of sorrow. God may take us through a desert experience, but the promised land is on the other side.
Tomorrow is the start of the fourth quarter, it's the first practice where all of the soccer players should be there, and it's the first full week of March. I'm excited to see what God has in store for me in the next month!
