Here in Atlanta we've been having lots of fun...perhaps you've read about our Snowpacolypse. Unfortunately, due to a myriad of decisions, circumstances and a monster snow storm (for us) thousands of people were stuck on the roadways for hours on end. Many, many were involved in accidents and were stranded from their friends and loved ones. Cold, wet and tired, many sought refuge with strangers. The storm brought out the best in many people too - those who braved the cold to delivery food, water, and blankets to others; started Facebook pages devoted to connecting the hurting with the helpers; and prayer warriors who asked for divine intervention on behalf of neighbors and friends.
Psalm 34 I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
Today, the snow is melting and things are moving back to normal. There's still ice out there. My house is still surrounded by snow, but I can see things melting away, like water receding from the shore. And tomorrow it will be nearly 60 degrees. Thank God for the mercy of safe travels for most, the kindness of strangers, and the opportunity to wonder in His creation. Hope you're warm where you are. Back to regularly scheduled programing soon. Hibernating for now. Be healthy!
