So I have been dreading this northern winter that is on its way right now. I’ve seen snow, but in Texas it only stays for a few days and then it’s gone… and I am perfectly okay with that! I have been praying that the warm weather stays. I even went as far as to pray for a Texas winter in Illinois. (It never hurts to ask 🙂 And boy was I surprised when the sun came out and it was warm enough to leave my jacket at the dorm. It lasted 2 days and people said they were surprised it was that warm in December. But I wasn’t surprised! I knew why! It was my little treat before He let loose the snow.
So today when it did start snowing – much to my surprise – I was excited about it! I was making cards and outside my window were lots of little flurries. It was beautiful! And I realized that although I have been dreading the snow – I am actually delighted it is here! And I’m gonna enjoy my first and last real white winter. And my LAST winter in prison! Hallelujah!
“For He says to the snow ‘fall on the earth,’ and to the rain shower, ‘be a mighty downpour.’ So that all men He has made may know His work.” Job 37:6-7
