Come away...

My beloved speaks and says to me,
Rise up, my love, my fair one,
and come away.
For, behold, the winter is past;
the rain is over and gone.
The flowers appear on the earth;
the time of the singing [of birds] has come,
and the voice of the turtledove
is heard in our land

Soaking in His peace this weekend with Sandy and Deidra

Such a pretty picture. I'm visiting from Still Saturday. I love your blog title. I've only seen Fire Flies one time. We don't have them in Washington.

Sweet pansy. And that was my fil's nickname for my mil. Spring is here. And I am glad. (Though it's pretty chilly today.)

When I see the pansy flowers smiling at me, all I can do is smile back. SofS in Amplified is an amazing reading. God used it as a way to heal me about 28 years ago... read it many, many times in a couple months.

Pansies are such a happy flower. I had some in a window box once, that bloomed underneath a layer of snow. Undaunted by the white blanket, they bloomed happily, spreading their smile to me. They weren't going to wait for spring - they bloomed anyway!

The detail in the photo is gorgeous!! I absolutely LOVE spring!! Around here, where I live, it's been slow to come and stay with us! this verse reminds me that spring is still guaranteed to come, even if it may be short!!
