COVERED

I can’t believe we got 12 inches of snow in middle Tennessee last week!

It was wild and crazy.

Wild because it was like a blizzard.  ;)

Crazy because we rarely get much snow here these days. They said it broke a record from 1966. 

The last big snow I can remember here was about 7 inches in 2003. We got stranded in Nashville and it took us four hours to get home that day. Luckily, we were in my husband’s four wheel drive truck or we might never have gotten home!

Anyway, the snow fall was wonderful! We enjoyed it thoroughly. Because the snow fell on a Friday, we ended up with a three day weekend with lots of fun snow stuff to do like sledding, taking hikes to the creek in the snow, building a snowman, snowball fights, etc.

I cooked a lot of food and we ate too much, too. Lol

But by Sunday, we were dying to get out of our little town and see what the rest of the world looked like. Church was cancelled so we took a drive and it was amazing.

We took a backroad and drove down the ridge. The snow made everything astoundingly beautiful. I remember looking out at it all in amazement and apparently, at the same time, thought “I don’t have anything to write about.” Then immediately, white as snow crossed my mind and I smiled.

Yes, the snow was lovely but at that moment I was reminded of what is even more beautiful.

As the snow falls and COVERS everything, it makes a beautiful, white sparkling blanket and everything covered by it is beautiful.

Christians are COVERED by Christ and our sins are as white as snow.

“Come now, let us reason together,” says the LORD. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.” Isaiah 1:18

I LOVE what God says.

I LOVE what God does.

He COVERS us and that's a beautiful thing ♡
