26 right now, feels like 17. Sure wish some of that globull warming would show itself! Sposed to get colder tonight and tom. Dang! If I wanted to be this cold, I’d move north!
My car door was frozen shut this am. Rained yest...AGAIN. State of NC has finally decided we are no longer under drought conditions. Ya think?! We’ve had 30-40” of rain in the last 2 months, and they’re still saying the water table is low. Obviously, they haven’t stepped foot outdoors in quite awhile!
The highway that winds around the southern shore of Lake Michigan can be treacherous in the winter. One weekend as we were driving back to Grand Rapids from Chicago, a buildup of snow and ice slowed traffic, caused numerous accidents, and almost doubled our drive time. We were relieved as we eased off the expressway onto our final road. It was then that my husband said out loud, Thanks, Lord. I think I can take it from here.
Just as he finished saying the words, our car spun around 180 degrees. As we came to a stop, hearts pounding, we could just imagine God saying: Are you sure?
Why do we sometimes try to go it alone in life when at every moment we have access to God? He said: I am with you and will keep you wherever you go (Gen. 28:15). And He assures us: I will never leave you nor forsake you (Heb. 13:5).
Scottish mathematician, theologian, and preacher Thomas Chalmers (17801847) wrote: When I walk by the wayside, He is along with me. When I enter into company, amid all my forgetfulness of Him, He never forgets me. . . . Go where I will, He tends me, and watches me, and cares for me.
What a comfort to know that God is always with uswe dont need to go through life alone!
That’s a bunch of rain! We are 3 degrees colder than normal for December...I’m looking for those warm days to pop up and give us a break from the cold..We usually get them.
We had one 75 degree day..the next day we had our first snow ever on Christmas Eve.LOL
