The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Psalms 19:1
I love to see the apple trees in full bloom, the redbuds against the deep green of the spruce, the lily of the valley proudly emerging from their winter’s rest; all signs of God’s creation returning to life. The annual rebirth of nature serves to remind us of the gift of regeneration promised to all who will humble themselves and pledge their lives to Christ.
 
Likewise Christ, speaking of his death and resurrection, said, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit." All of creation symbolizes the greatness or our merciful God.
