The Treasures of the Snow


Job 38:22  
Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow?
 Or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail,


Amy sliding in the snow :)


Crazy amounts of snow! Joyous!!

"I Love My Mommy!!"


Unique

A thrill spirals down my spine
The first snowflake has fallen
For now I dread the day when
I will see that last one of the season

Smiling, I draw a deep cool breath of frosty air
Exhaling with a chuckle as my breath freezes
In mid-air so that I can not only feel it but see it
Such joy is only felt on a winter day

Snowflakes, each created perfect and unique
Sent down to earth to fall where God wills
As is each one of us, none of us the same,
Searching for the place God has for us to land

Spring air will warm the earth and the beauty
Of winter will fade, another season gone by
Snowflakes will cease to fall, but their purpose
Is fulfilled in replenishing the moisture for spring growth

So will our purpose be fulfilled in our season
Our qualities unique and perfected in our
Lord’s strength; Like the lovely snowflake
May we find our way in His grace and love.
