I pulled this wintery post from my archives…… it seemed perfect for today. A cold and snowy day after freezing temperatures.
*************************************************************************************************************
Yes. This winter seems unending.
It has been cold and chaotic since the first snow fell on December 1.
And yet…as I stand at my kitchen window, I am amazed at the beauty of it all.
I quietly sigh. I stare upward.
White gray.
Snow blowing every which way. A blur of flakes.
Each one different. Unusual.
The scene before me resembles a snow globe that has been shook hard.
A flake frenzy.
Cold beauty.
Dogs with snowy fur.
Schools closed.
Gray sky filled with flakes.
The roar of wind.
I feel the need to snap a picture. To remember.
To pull out on the hot, sticky days of late July.
A cool memory to ease the pain of the heat.
Lord, I am thankful for this day you have given me.
And for the eyes wide open…to see your gift to me.
