Sunshine, Tea, & Muffins

~ Everyday Living, Faith, Spring

“…aim for restoration, comfort one another, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.”
‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭13:11‬ ‭

Hello dear readers. Yesterday was a day full of blue skies with sunshine and our weatherman has forecast a few more delightful days. It is amazing how a little sunshine makes these days of social distancing easier. I decided on treating myself to a simple little pleasure yesterday…a table for one underneath the rose arbor. I saved you a virtual seat!

“Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy…

If I had a wish that I could wish for you
I’d make a wish for sunshine all the while.”
-John Denver

A cup of Earl Grey tea and home-made lemon poppyseed muffins (one of my favorites) make for a perfect mid-day treat…

The Arrival Of Spring

“You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭26:3‬ ‭

Happy first day of Spring dear friends. Even though it seems our life is spinning out of control, nothing has taken God by surprise…He holds the universe in His hands. Today He has given us a new season, one that springs forth with hope. I have gathered some of my favorite spring photos to hopefully add a little beauty to your day.
