The Lord has done it this very day;
let us rejoice today and be glad.
Psalm 118:24
The first day of spring is one thing, and the first spring day is another.
The difference between them is sometimes as great as a month.
Henry van Dyke
In 1557 a gentleman by the name of Thomas Tusser compiled a collection of writings he called A Hundred Good Points of Husbandry. In the April Husbandry section he wrote:
Sweet April showers

Do spring May flowers
As you can see, the rhyme was originally a short poem. There is meaning behind the words, as well. “April showers bring May flowers†is a reminder that even the most unpleasant of things, in this case the heavy rains of April, can bring about very enjoyable things indeed – in this case, an abundance of flowers in May. “April showers bring May flowers†is a lesson in patience, and one that remains valid to this day.

In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’â€
Acts 20:35
Used by permission.
“Drip down, O heavens, from above, And let the clouds pour down righteousness; Let the earth open up and salvation bear fruit, And righteousness spring up with it. I, the LORD, have created it.       Isaiah 45:8
Have a blessed April!
See you next month!
