FIRST LILACS OF 09


Thank you, Lord, for the smell of new Spring and the flowers that appear each in their own turn. Today I bless the luxurious lilacs which scent my garden - their color and extravagant beauty fill me with hope and reassurance that Spring comes again and again. We are new and the same in the flowers. Thank you for this blessed Lent of self-examination and springing hope for new life in your son our brother, Jesus, as we look beyond the grave with love. Amen.
