This page gives you Bible verses about spring, grouped by the moments when new growth feels most needed: the first warm morning, a season of waiting, a fresh start, and a thankful heart. It is written for anyone who wants Scripture that connects the turning of the seasons with God’s faithfulness. These verses share one thread: the God who brings seasons to their appointed times is the same God who is faithful to people in their own slow seasons.

Give me patience to wait, courage to start again, and a grateful heart for the beauty you place around me each day. Renew my strength where I am weary, and let my hope rest in your steady love. Amen.
