Experiencing a February thaw in Minnesota is
invigorating. Warm sunshine, melting
snow, birds chirping. Ahhh! But it’s
still winter.
As we chop ice and
clear snow and stretching our aching backs, we can pause and notice the beauty
of the snow. Be reminded of God and His word.
Snow will replenish the earth and get it ready for spring. And it will cover
the dirt and the dust with a beautiful white. It’s what Jesus did for us!
“Come now, let us settle the matter,” 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
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 55:10-11
Dear Lord,
We do thank You for Your word and for Your Son. He cleanses
our sins white as snow. Keep our minds on You as You replenish our souls.
Amen
