Snow Day!

Yesterday it snowed.

Now, I don't usually get all uppadee about snow but it was a lot of snow! This was not the first snow day this year in Glasgow, but it is the first day it stuck for longer then one day! It is amazing how one can wake up all tired and kinda gloomy, but once the curtains are opened and fresh gleaming white snow is seen through the window joy, excitement, and childhood glee comes rushing over. It was so much fun walking in the snow, taking my time playing with the neighborhood kids, helping people dig their cars out and taking pictures of everything as it looks so different covered in white.

Truly Glasgow is a different place in the snow. People are happier, fun, and smiling. It is like a bunch of old grumps were turned young again... a kind of cold Neverland. It is also a great analogy of a great awesome God who can turn even a dark, dirty, Glasgow in to a white winter wonderland. What an amazing day to go to Church! Everything feels new, clean, like a do-over. And the best part is that on Monday morning... it was not a dream, for it is still gleaming white outside!

"...I know my transgressions... my sin is ever before me...... purify me...wash me and I shall be whiter than snow." Ps.51
