Snow Day

What a beautiful sight! We have received about 7 inches of snow in 7 hours. Now for some areas that would be nothing, but for our area, that is a record snowfall. Schools are closed, businesses closed, plans altered because of the blanket of white. As I look out my window to my back porch, I notice that the rusty milk can has been transformed into a beautiful tin soldier with a pointed hat. The foxtail (weed) stands out as a gorgeous work of art as it barely holds onto the piles of snow bending its stem. The pile of leaves that we never got around to moving is quickly out of sight. Isn't it amazing how things change when covered with snow. We, too, are changed and made beautiful because we are covered with Christ's blood.
