Snow

This has been a winter to go down in history.  Why?  Because until today, we haven't really had a winter.  It has been like spring since November.  I have had flowers, bushes, and trees bloom that should have been dormant.  I was pretty consistent with my moaning and groaning about no winter.

Well, today the Lord of Glory answered the cry of my heart and sent snow!..  The child in the old lady was beside herself.  I wanted to cry for joy.  I sent text messages to everyone I could think of that might be as excited as I!  I called my brother twice!!!  I love winter and all that goes with it: snow, ice, heavy coats, boots, sleds; yep, I love it all.  I long for it all summer, and since moving to central Texas I expect it. I stood outside for some time just enjoying the falling snow; the neighbors and my dogs thought I had lost my mind! 

I won't bemoan the terribly hot summer we have had and the horrific drought we have been experiencing, but suffice it to say that WINTER has eased this troubled heart.  It means so much to know that God hears and answers prayer, and HE will give us the desires of our hearts---in HIS timing.  This snow gives me added hope that God is listening and answering my prayers.  And, if HE took time to send me some snow, HE will most definitely meet my needs.  And, you know LORD, that prince charming I am hoping to meet.......  Enjoy the day the Lord has made.  Rejoice and be glad in it!
