"We know that we live in Him and He lives in us because He has given us His Spirit." I John 4: 15.

What does this scripture mean to you?

To me this scripture is my assurance and comfort. I know the Holy Spirit lives in me. Even when I sin, which I often do, the Holy Spirit will not leave me. When the Holy Spirit leaves the earth I will go with him because He will not leave me. I find a lot of comfort in this scripture.

Prompt: I heard the first signs of spring this morning. It was a sparrow singing. What is the first signs of spring in your area? Have they arrived yet?

The first signs of spring that I have seen here is the return of the wild onion. Wild onions do not grow in winter but they are all over our yard now. I have also been seeing robins since January.

What do you think is the relationship between learning and creative potential?

Socrates would disagree. Socrates believed that humans already possessed all the knowledge they would ever need and that it was merely a matter of teasing it out of them. Thus we ask questions in school. However I agree that there is a correlation between learning and creativity. I believe the more we learn the more creative we are.
