Tis the Season to be Icy

This morning when my husband came home from work, I got up to fix him breakfast. He told me how the other guys at work could not get the doors to their vehicles opened and the ice was so thick on the windshields of the cars. As we were talking we were standing in the entry way with the front door opened. We had the dogs outside doing their morning ritual. Our littlest dog ran across the sidewalk and his back paws met up with his front paws and he almost went head first into the snow. He has a tendency to want to run around until he finds the right spot to mark. Well, not this morning, every time he moved a paw it would slide this way and that. It was such a sight to see. He barely got up the front steps. So, while we were enjoying this comic relief from the family pet, I noticed the branches on our tree and the ice that covered the tree. The wind picked up and the tree cracked and creaked as it moved with the wind. It was a powerful moment for me, the power of our Lord in action concerning His creation. It amazes me to think how powerful our Lord is, and we may never ever see the full power of God until we reach Heaven. I am at awe with Him. It just warms my heart for this season to see another example of His power.
