Fresh lime green

One of the beauties of spring are the fresh lime green leaves on display everywhere! They announce loud and clear that spring has commenced and that life may well feel a little easier. Surprisingly though this spring we have gone straight to temperatures well in the 30'sC, which is quite strange for this time of the year. We normally manage quite a few weeks with moderate 20's before the summer temperatures start. Probably has something to do with the lack of rain we've had this year.

With fresh leaves come a fresh start to a new season of new gardening fun, lazy days in the sun with family and friends. With longer daylight hours the days seem longer and we feel we are able to achieve more and yet time for spiritual matters still seems strained. Are there ways in which we can make our spiritual growth easier?

I think we can. If you are anything like me when you are playing on the Internet you could have 3 or 4 web pages open at the same time, fleeting between each. How about fleeting to a christian website and read some interesting articles? How about becoming curious about a particular spiritual topic and googling information about that? I have also mentioned that some websites sell christian books free of charge so downloading some of those could be of great help to you.

In our information age, information about spiritual topics is easily obtained so it boils down to a choice about whether or not we are willing to put ourselves out to take the time to use the tools and information available. I'd like to encourage you to do so as this can only help lead you to a deeper and more meaningful walk with God.
