Did you see the snow the other day? Even just an inch or two blanketing our dreary winter landscape reminds us beautifully of God’s covering over messes and stains.
But then it rained. And rained. And rained. The mess and floods return! And yes, I’ve said it a time (or twenty) recently…all this rain could have been snow…2″ of rain today = 20 inches of snow! Just imagine how beautiful God’s handiwork would be then!! How frustrating that it’s rain!
Sounds like I know better than God….hmmmm….maybe…just mayyyyybe God has a different plan!? One that doesn’t involve sled riding (and shoveling!)
When have your expectations been left unmet? When has your contentment been challenged? Who is on your throne of priority and focus?
Let’s look to the Lord instead of out the window. Give thanks for what God sends – even if it isn’t what you thought you wanted.
“Be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” Hebrews 13:5
