Easter is a new creation


  
"On the third day the friends of Christ coming at daybreak to the place found the grave empty and the stone rolled away. In varying ways they realized the new wonder; but even they hardly realized that the world had died in the night. What they were looking at was the first day of a new creation, with a new heaven and a new earth; and in a semblance of the gardener God walked again in the garden, in the cool not of the evening but of the dawn."
Gilbert K. Chesterton
I admire the talent of people who decorate eggs like the above. They are works of art, aren't they?

I love those decorated Easter eggs - they are so beautifully done.

I do intend, on your recommendation, to get an apple blossom clematis to work its way through a tree in my new garden.

Those eggs are so pretty! I wish I had that talent, and the steady hand to do it.

Lovely decorated eggs. I admire them a lot, but I don't possess the talent or the patience to attempt them myself.

Blessings~
