Snow Falling
God is with us in all kinds of situations and all kinds of weather. In winter it is on our minds quite a bit, especially as the Spring approaches. God understands this. It is not like He gets tired of hearing from His children about anything on our minds, even if we may be tired of asking for help with it again.
Understanding that God has the power to change things, we pray. Knowing that He may not change things, we still pray. Whather the answer is yes or no, we want to put our request in.
As far as weather goes, our preferences can be so far apart from one another that what one is bemoaning, another may be rejoicing in.
Since I wrote about weather concerns yesterday, I figured I would write about how it turned out so far.
Though we did get quite a bit of snow, it was not as bad as had been predicted. I cannot say that about everywhere the snow storm was predicted, but for us it was not so bad. Still a mess to clean up, but it was doable.
Though it had stopped it aeems like we are not at an end to it yet.
Until a while ago we had been having steady snowfall since it started some time last night, which means quite a bit of extra shoveling through the day to keep up with it.
It could have been so much worse if it had been a heavier snow But since we have so many microclimates in our area, other places could have more and heavier snow.
With such fine snow this morning white-outs had been quite a bit of an issue for those driving, besides the snowy and slippery roads.
The temperature wasn't that bad, the wind was a bit of a pain, but it was not as strong as predicted.
Tomorrow they are still predicting snow, but with colder temperatures. The 20's of today are expected to turn to teens tomorrow with single digits for the low. It will make it chillier to deal with more clean up if it does.
Snowy weather matters more when we have to be out in it. Watching snow drifting down softly inside, from our window, wood stove warming our home, is beautiful.
Trying to get to our destination in a vehicle, it is less pleasant. Today, we had a lot of work to do outside because of the snow, but we did not drive anywhere. We even watched church on live stream this morning for a change.
Really it was typical Northwoods Winter weather, just not as welcomed by very many now.
Stay strong! Stay connected to God in all things!
