" STEP INTO EXPECTANCY "

This morning, as on most, I went outside. Early morning is my favorite time of the day..it is the time when it seems, to me, like "new things" are happening. The sound of birds singing bring a "new" smile to my face. It gives me great delight to watch them fly and move among the trees. I love to look towards the heavens at the beautiful expanse of  blue sky and clouds. To have a "brand new day" spread all around and before me is a wonderful blessing!  It is as though it is a brand new experience for me..and..of course it is because: 
"It is a brand new day, this day that God has made, and my expectancy in the new day is being fulfilled."
Well, this morning, I had only been outside a few minutes when I
noticed the sun shining brightly through one tree in particular. As I looked, I began to see that the tree was full of "fuzzy yellow flower-like things". I got so excited..and I said God.."this tree is budding..it really is starting to feel and look like spring".
New life has come into the tree and it is shouting it out through the beautiful display of flowery growth!  AND GOD IS SPEAKING TO ME..reminding me of His word to us that He is releasing "The newness of Spring over and into the lives of His Children."
In leading me to "see" the new growth on the tree, I know that He was encouraging me to "see and know" that what He has spoken is happening..I also believe that this is for all of us to know.
So, I want to encourage you because I believe He is saying:
"I want to you to believe My word to you, "BE EXPECTANT" of My  doing a new thing in your life...to bring forth new life..to restore your hope!"

Psalm 145:15-16 (amplified)
The eyes of all wait for You (looking, watching, and expecting) and you give them their food in due season.
You open Your hand and satisfy every living thing with favor.

May we all set our eyes upon, and our hearts be filled with expectancy for, Jesus...the Author and Finisher of our Faith!

love and blessings in Jesus Name,
Drema
