We had snow in the neighborhood overnight. And what a snow it was. 8 inches of white stuff that covered everything, driveways, streetways, cars parked in either, houses covered from foundation to roof top, and trees bowing to all the beauty they were dressed in. White, winter wonderland everywhere. It was spectacular. Cameras come out on days like these. Pictures are taken and you just can’t seem to stop. They are popping up on Facebook and who know where else. The beauty is everywhere and it just grabs you.
There is something about the abundance of white pure snow hanging all over everything that captivates us. It is so different from anything else in our weather patterns. It excites, awes and amazes. It invites play and imagination. God loves the whiteness of it all, too. It’s just His way of cleansing and beautifying. When we are cleansed by our faith in the work of Jesus Christ on the cross, He describes us, by the washing away of our sins, as being whiter than snow. I like to think that we as Christians have that kind of beauty to where people are awed, amazed and captivated by God’s work in us.
