Snow and Jesus

We had our first snow fall of the season. It gently fell to the ground all day and was absolutely beautiful. I have a tradition where I go outside and dance around in a circle for the first snow of winter. I don't even remember how long ago it started, but I love to see the snow falling and covering the ground. It makes everything clean, pure, and white; it always reminds of Jesus' blood that covered my sins and made me white as snow. We are each unique and different like each snowflake; and Jesus loves each one of us. Thanks God for making snow and sending your Son to die for me. ! I love you with all my heart!

So busy...

It seems I get so busy I don't keep up with this blog like I want to. Facebook, emails, volunteer work, etc. all seem to soak up my time these days. I don't ever want to be so busy I miss the blessings God gives me each day. I'm thankful for my family and the wonderful love we share. Christmas is always a busy time. I'm practicing the cantata and the excitement grows at each practice. How awesome that God sent His only Son as a baby? He chose to send Him as a baby - what excitement a baby brings!
