Dear God,

In the early morning I stood alone looking out over the choppy lake.  The wind was blowing the only big tree on the property when all of a sudden snow began falling from the sky.  I raced to the window and felt like a little child once again.  Winter...it is coming!

How I love the four seasons!  I love the way you color the spring and then the summer but wow, when Autumn comes, how beautiful is it?  When winter rolls around producing those gorgeous, unique snowflakes, I know I have seen the hand of the Almighty!

Just to think of a single snowflake, one not like any other.  Who else would create each one uniquely different?

The seasons proclaim the creative power of your love, O God.  They tell the story of your awesome wonder.  They cry out your glory and majesty.  As winter is quietly waiting its turn, this small child in the window cries out your praise!

Holy God,
thank you
for the beauty
of every season.
Thank you
for the
first snow,
just a
tiny smattering
of flakes
that take me
at once
back to you.
I am
so grateful,
so very grateful

Love, Andrea
