Headin' North (and it's not me this time!)

I was talking to my dear mom on the phone the other day when I noticed a large flock of birds flying over the house. White, with black wing tips, I identified them as Snow Geese. Having just moved my desk next to the window, I watched all day as hundreds and hundreds of geese flew swiftly overhead. (So much for "working!") At one point I went out on the porch to listen to them. What a beautiful sound!  Spring is indeed almost here (even though it snowed 4 inches that same day!). Spring makes me think of "new life," like the new life I have in Christ. I am His daughter. I ponder the really new life that my 84 year-old mom will have someday soon, as she struggles with leukemia . This quote really ministered to me today: she's not "going" anywhere, she's "coming" to be with Jesus! Mom, the battle's not yours...it's already won! Your Savior Jesus conquered death and the grave so you don't have to. I love you!! Jesus loves you!!  Fear not. "Behold," He says, "I make all things new!"
