Winter's Gift

Winter’s Gift

Peace fell flake by flake today, blanketing all that would have her. Everything feels fresh and new, even if just for a little while. I spent a little time walking around our little farm after I put the horses up, just breathing in the sweetness of it.

Snow.

Yes. It feels like a fresh start.

Psalm 51:7

“Soak me in your laundry and I’ll come out clean,
    scrub me and I’ll have a snow-white life.
Tune me in to foot-tapping songs,
    set these once-broken bones to dancing.
Don’t look too close for blemishes,
    give me a clean bill of health.
God, make a fresh start in me,
    shape a Genesis week from the chaos of my life.” (The Message)

    So glad that you got to see some snow this winter. I love to watch it fall and stay for a day but then I love to see the sun come out and watch it melt! We have lots here in the State of Illinois. More on the way. Enjoy!

    Mary Anne, God has given you the beautiful gift of communication and expression. I thank Him for it because it blesses me. You know when to stop using words and allow the photographs to carry your message . . . and they do it beautifully! Thank you for using your gift to bless others!!! By the way, I’ve sent the link to your blog to numerous young women in my family and sphere of influence that they might be blessed also. Blessings to your day . . .
