Do you really know snow?

Let's turn our attention to snow, that blanket of crystals gracing our lives in winter.  It can be much more that frozen water crystal, can't it.

       No one likes city snow, well none but the children who have their sleds, snowballs and snowmen; but ask any adult and you get the inevitible chaos of walking and driving in slush, cleaning windscreens from their morning frosting and all those layers of clothing to take on and off....and cold messiness to life.

       We have looked at snow through different eyes, we older folk and the young ones.   Let's look at it another way......  Perhaps  a whiter viewpoint that the Lord of the Bible suggests.....  

       So have a look at the page named White as  Snow....

Winter anyone?

Winter was never my favourite season.   It still isn't.   My husband on the other hand has always loved it and is forever trying to get me out to walk in it.    For that I will be ever thankful to him.   Have a look at the Winter page and share what winter is for you and how it reveals the God of the Bible.

For me it is a time of rest for nature.   Untold things are going on where we cannot see them, deep in the soil, regeneration, and much more.   We'll start in on those next time.

Does Anyone Have an Excuse not to Believe in the God of the Bible?

The Bible answers an emphatic no.  God has revealed what He is like in and through His creation.    Every person, therefore, either accepts or rejects God....

               ... and so it was this fragment from Romans 1:18-20 sets up the way to learn about God that everyone has been given.

   That got me thinking of the many parables that Jesus Himself used to explain real spiritual principles in human levels of our understanding.
   So, let's explore them together through writing, art and all manner of our creative outpourings to make Him more visible to a skeptical world, and adore Him by contemplating all things He has revealed about Himself through the natural world around us.    Of course  they are many!
    I invite you to read my thoughts and post your own here with me through your comments and own ideas under the heading given so we can concentrate and home in on related topics together...
    As a beginner blogger, I've got a lot to learn how to do this.   But, I have learned so much about the LORD that I simply must share in my work.

5 am?

5 am? What does such a horrendous hour have to do with me? Blackbirds!   Loads of blackbirds! Wake up and find out...... It's magic...
