More Michigan snow fell overnight bringing us to almost ten inches in the last two days. Waking up this morning and looking out my dinning room window to see this blanket of white reminded me of a song I sang a long time ago in church. The words went like this:

I once read in a poem, when snow covers the earth; it hides the world’s flaws and gives nature new birth.

And they say when a man turns from sin to the Lord, that forgiveness, like snow, covers him evermore.

And somewhere it’s snowing; see the soft coming down, as the snowflakes surrender to the hardening ground.

Like the good grace of Jesus that now covers our sin; in the kingdom of heaven it’s snowing again.

I love the picture that is painted of someone coming to faith in God for the first time and I am reminded of the day that I first placed my trust in Him and the snow of his forgiveness covered me evermore. May this be a year that we are more intentional in our efforts to pray for those who need His snow white touch. Make it your aim to point others to Him this year.

Don’t you love to see it snow?

Snowy sweet blessings,

Karen
