Dogwood's are Blooming

The Dogwood's are Blooming,

Do You Know The Story of The Dogwood?

Tradition and Historical Perspective,

The Story is The Dogwood Tree was The Tree Chosen to Make The Cross That Would Be Used to Crucify The Lord Jesus Christ.

Even Though His Body May Have Been Taken From This Earth, His Spirit Remains and Every Spring We Are Blessed With a Reminder of

The Events That Unfolded on That Fateful Passover.

The Blooms Often Appear in The Shape Of a Cross With Holes in The Tips of The Pedals Signifying The Nails That Were Driven Into His Hands On The Cross. If You Look Closely, You Can Notice a Faint Red Stain Representing The Blood. In The Center You Will Also Find a Green Bloom Symbolizing The Crown of Thorns Placed On HIS Head.

Needless to Say, The Dogwood is More Than a Tree,

It is a Representation of Resurrection.

Every Spring We are Reminded of What God Has Done For Us,

For The Promise He Has Given Us,

To Be Born Again and Start a New Life, and Be a Part of the Final Resurrection!

Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

John 11:25
