Good morning, I think. 💤

It’s early on the first day of Daylight Savings time, and I went to bed too late. Coffee hasn’t kicked in yet, and I need to leave in a couple hours for church. I am “springing forward” the day after snow came down from the sky with temperatures dropping over 40°.

I don’t feel very springy for a variety of reasons. What about you? Are you feeling weary and weighed down with two plus years of illness, news of warfare in Ukraine, everyday struggles, and family issues? You’re not alone. Life for many has gotten very challenging. It’s tempting to not even try to count our blessings, but let me encourage you to do so. I have much for which to be thankful – hopefully you do too. If you have a roof over your head, heat, food, clothes, a working vehicle, job, etc., you are blessed compared to many others. Let’s try to be a blessing to others in these difficult days. We are blessed to be a blessing. Spring foward!
