CHAPTER 1
The Blessing of Easter
God gave us new life with Christ.
Ephesians 2:5
Spring is springing; Birds are singing. Songs of joy Are sweetly ringing!
New life brings Such happy things. Thank You, Jesus, Risen King!
Dear God, good things are ours because Jesus lives!
The Blessing of Hope
He watches over those who put their hope in his love.
Psalm 33:18
Hope you have a joyful day. Hope you feel God's love! Hope the sun shines brightly From the clear blue sky above.
Hope you know the story Of the Savior's empty tomb And think about the hope He gives With every springtime bloom!
Dear God, I see things all around me that remind me of Your love.
The Blessing of Springtime
The Lord will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain that waters the grouhd.
Hosea 6:3
Grass of green and skies of blue, Birds softly chirp their songs for you. Tulips lift their sleepy heads In yellows, purples, pinks, and reds.
We watch the seasons come and go, But this, dear child, be sure to know: The Lord is with you every day — His perfect love is here to stay!
Dear God, I'm so glad Your love for me never changes or goes away.
The Blessing of New Life
If anyone belongs to Christ, then he is made new.
2 Corinthians 5:17
Like the butterfly that floats Upon the wispy wind, Like the baby robin hatching When its life begins ...
Jesus gives new life to you And everything you see. His mighty love and gentle care Bring all good things to be!
Dear God, life is a good gift, and You are the greatest giver!
The Blessing of Showers
The Lord makes the clouds. He sends the showers.
Zecharian 10:1
Sprinkle, splash, drip-drop, pour. What are springtime showers for? The flowers, trees, and bumblebees, Waking from their winter snore.
Drizzle, spatter, pitter-patter. Why do springtime showers matter? Just like Jesus makes us new, The earth gets fresh beginnings too!
Dear God, thank You for bright beginnings because of Your great love!
The Blessing of Forgiveness
You can have forgiveness of your sins through Jesus.
Acts 13:38
When you need a brand-new start, When you want a happy heart, When you feel the need to say, "Forgive the things I did today ..."
Jesus hears and understand. That's why the cross was in God's plan, To wash our sins and make us new. Forgiveness shows God's love is true!
Dear God, You show Your perfect love when You forgive me.
The Blessing of Flowers
Blossoms appear through all the land. The time has come to sing.
Sons of Solomon 2:12
Daffodils and dandelions Wear yellow in the spring. Tulips topped in pink and red Make all the bluebirds sing.
Lilacs bloom in purple, Like the grape hyacinths do. God knew these pretty flowers Would make us happy too!
Dear God, than You for making earth a colorful place to live!
The Blessing of Song
I will praise God in a song.
Psalm 69:30
Sing your favorite, Write your own, When you're young And when you're grown.
Love God with A happy song, And you'll be happy All day long!
Dear God, I enjoy singing to You because my heart fills up with love!
