New....
The new fiscal year, school year, and general feeling of a new beginning, comes every April, in Japan. Its also cherry blossom season and the beginning of spring. Altogether, they bring this 'fresh start' feeling. As refreshing as this warmer weather is after the cold winter, and as breath-taking as the tons of cherry blossoms are, it is not the sweetest thing of the season. God has used this 'new-ness' to remind me that He makes all things new. He alone can completely change us from the inside out. He's the one who reached out to us. He sent His son, our Savior, our hope and our real reason to rejoice in each new day. I praise His perfect timing for reminding me about the new life I have in Christ,...and just before Easter.
Happy Easter, everyone!
