The snowflakes are gently falling on the tiny garden outside my building...there is a feeling of utter peace as I ponder the miracle of God's creation! I recall hearing that each flake is unique in nature and as I watch the dance of white snowy flakes I am called to wait and see what lies ahead. A holy hush has fallen over the earth. I wonder if others take the time to hear it? Posts are popping up on my newsfeed concerning the much needed bread and milk and other necessities which we need to get by until it's over.
Do we really take time to pause and enjoy the view? Maybe we should take the time to see the gift. Snow is a perfect analogy for the whiteness of our garments once God washes us free from sin. We are then set apart for our calling to become as he is. Holy in all ways...a hope is instilled within our souls as we ponder his grace. Grace which the songs proclaim is whiter than snow. Oh such peace is ours as a result of accepting His grace and forgiveness.
My hope is in the one who created my life to be a light for other souls to see, will grant you hope as the journey of life takes you forward each day towards the life giving salvation he has offered us, if we just trust I his love. Are you washed in the blood? In the soul saving blood of the lamb? Are your garments spotless, are they white as snow, are you washed in the blood of the lamb?
May the gentle fall of snowflakes find us seeking to grasp the tenderness of our God who loves us so much he would offer his son in our place. Oh the gracious love of God! Each snowflake is unique, just as the life he has given us along the road before us. We are only a breath away from the place we call heaven. In the meantime may we rejoice in the day of snow and gives thanks to the father of life who made us all for times such as this.
Beautiful!
