After seeing the beautiful snowfall when the sun came up this morning, I kept thinking of the old hymn "Whiter Than Snow". I know the snow means trouble for many who have to get up and go to work and drive on slippery roads. Also, it creates problems with some people losing power, and just staying warm. And, I remember how confined you can feel being inside with little children and somehow, feeling all alone. I have to admit though, that I just love a beautiful snowfall. The snow makes everything so clean which reminds me of the scripture: Psalm 51: 7 and 10..Cleanse me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow. Create in me a pure heart, O God and renew a steadfast spirit within me."
It was a nice surprise to hear the doorbell ring this morning and Les and Elsie asked if we would like to go for a walk. Being in the single digits, we questioned whether we should or not, but even though it was cold, it was worth it. The sun was shining and there was no wind, so the extreme cold didn't feel that cold.
The video is not the old hymn, but I found this and liked it and hope that you will enjoy it too!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you guys had a good time. Do this for me, go to a restaurant in Denver called Colt and Gray and have the Sticky Toffee Pudding with Bourbon Ice Cream. Write me and tell me how delicious it is and how I just have to fly out there to have some:)
