Winter is Here


This is the scene that I woke up to this morning. It is sad because I'm not a huge fan of winter. And yet, there is something so clean and beautiful and serene about a new snowfall, especially the first of the season. I do love the way trees look when the snow sticks on their branches. And when the sun is shining and glistening off of the snow it is one of the most beautiful things in nature.
I am someone who connects with God through nature. There is something about looking on to His creation that is so full of awe and wonder for me. I love thinking about how God "paints" his creation so beautifully, and that we are able to enjoy it. So, this morning I will not be sad that winter is here and it will be many long months before we see the grass, and leaves and flowers, but I will simply take in the creation that God has given us to enjoy and protect.
