On a day like today, who wouldn't want to be inside? It's snowy and cold and we may as well just accept the fact that we clearly aren't able to go anywhere today.
I do love how pretty the snow looks as it falls from the Heavens. I just spent the last 3 minutes looking staring out the window comparing snow to living in the moment [hard to believe right?]. Listen to my theory.
We all hate the aftermath of snow, right? The digging-your-car-out-of-6-inches-of-snow and the cold it brings with it. But if we live in the moment as the snow falls, we'll discover it's something quite beautiful. I'm in awe of the fact that these gorgeous frozen pieces of Heaven fall out of the sky to bring us a clean layer of white. Like Jesus' grace and forgiveness. It seems like it comes out of nowhere [as does snow from the sky look like] but nonetheless He loves us and washes us as white as snow. AMAZING. How His grace just piles up like the snow. How His love for us piles up like the snow.
God also taught me this morning that we each have a calling on our lives [I'd been thinking about this a lot lately but He just drilled it into my head once more]. Regardless of your job calling, we have a Jesus-following-calling. In everything we do, we are responsible for reflecting Jesus.
You may hear more from me later if this cabin fever thing gets to me. Who knows.
But for right now? Live in the moment and watch the snow fall. Cause it truly is gorgeous. (:
Arms Open Wide...
