Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it SnowCategory:
Observations
It has been snowing most of the day today. It just keeps coming down. As I was hastily shoveling 7 inches of snow off the walk tonight, I was thinking about how I am leaving for a trip out of state first thing in the morning, how my one-year old son has been very sick with the flu the last couple days, how I’m not done refinishing the wood floor I started sanding this weekend, and how I’m not sure I’m prepared for two days of client meetings. I started comparing life’s busy-ness with the continual snowfall. Like the snow, life just keeps coming. My first thought was, “I can handle it.” But then I wondered if this was just a small test of sorts to rely on God more. It made me think to pray without ceasing because life continues to be hard without ceasing. Posted by pablohart on February 28, 2005 10:28 PM |
Paul,
what a word picture and a great lesson to learn - only by clinging to God can we make it. Nothing - NOTHING can be done on our own. thank you again for your honesty. I could help you with the wood floors if only we lived there.
Someday.
