Reflections on Snow

I've entered the world of blogging! I'm still learning how to do this so nothing real exciting happening here right now. I wrote this email last week about the snow and could not get it to send so I thought that I would post it.

As the rain and the snow come down from heaven,
and do not return to it without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,
so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,
so is my word that goes out from my mouth:

It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. Isaiah 55

A verse for fitting for today! Snow that will water the earth and bring forth the bud!! I love snow since we don't see it much here! Ya'll know that I'm weird and God speaks to me through nature so of course the snow got to me this morning. I was a little sad that we had to rush off to Rodeo Day and only had a moment to savor the beauty of it all. Forgive my kooky-ness, but I felt like it was a special blessing for all of us, a sprinkling of the Almighty's power and awesomeness! I kept thinking about those storehouses laden with snow that the Word talks about and today it was our turn to see them! My L-Pie has been praying for a long time for the snow to come and I think she had given up hope so it was great to see her face this morning.

For those that rodeo-ed with me today, you deserve a great big "SA - LUTE!!" (if you've watched Hee Haw then you get it) In other words, thanks for all you did today to make it special for our buckaroos!

I leave you with this verse fitting for the Easter season and I hope you have a great spring break!
"Come now, let us reason together," says the LORD.
"Though your sins are like scarlet,
they shall be as white as snow;
though they are red as crimson,
they shall be like wool. Isaiah 1:18
