Snow Days





We had our first snowfall for this winter season last weekend.    For several days, schools were closed and grocery stores were over-run with folks buying foodstuffs like they would not come back till Spring.  Amid the  things that accompanied the snow were good reminders for me  such as the following:

  • What a thing of beauty is most anything in God’s creation when God transforms it through ice and snow
  • I am blessed  being a part of the life of a church and sorely miss when I do not have the chance to worship
  • I  so enjoy the company of my wife, Ann Wall, and the opportunity the snow gave me to spend alone time with her
  • I am so grateful for those persons that keep the electricity on in our community especially in a winter storm
  • I am thankful for those who keep working when others of us are not like those persons restoring power or running the snowplows down our roads
  • It is so good to curl up in a warm place with a good book

What good reminders or lessons did the recent snow storm provide you?   I encourage you to discover your own.    Have a joy-filled week.- Pastor Randy Wall



Prayer:   Living and loving God,  fresh as a new fallen snow is your love and grace each day.  Give me eyes to discover this day the gifts this day offers;  through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.
