The world is fresh and new tonight. There is a sparkling blanket of snow over the pale patchy winter grasses. In just a few short hours, there was no more mud, no more dirt. Just a pristine winter wonderland.
There is something in my soul that responds to this miraculous transformation. It gentles the sorrow I have been facing and brings a new sense joy and hope. It reminds me that God's love will make all things new again in his time. A reminder that there is a season for everything. In the same way that the snow covers the dirt and mud, God's grace covers my hurts and inadequacies.
I am thankful for the respite today. There is life waiting to bud out under the snow. Spring is just around the corner.
