Our Creator

Sometimes with the holidays, I often think of the landscape outside.  We had a some snow for Christmas, but it was so very cold.   The rush of all of it makes me have to take a moment and close my eyes and think of a picture that is calming, to ease my mind.
       I had to work the last two days after Christmas so anytime I catch a moment, I think of this image.
I remember what Apostle Paul wrote how man pauses to contemplate  the marvels of the universe and often times in doing so, has come face to face with his creator.
       I can see snow falling against a cobalt blue sky, sparkling as it floats down to the surface of the earth. Falling as it were from God's hands.
       It relaxes me to think of the beauty of it all instead of the other unpleasant things that come along with snow.
       The holiday is almost over and often times the let-down sets in.  Most people celebrate the New Years by going out.  This year like many, it will be a quiet time with my kids, my dog and I , watching the ball drop to usher in the new year.  Seeing that I have to work on New Years Eve, I am hoping I can keep awake to watch it come down.
        New Years Day, my little family and I will visit my folks and then the following morning its off to work again.   The time will come when I need to reflect on "The Master Artist" creation and take in all the beauty that He has made.  Not only in nature but in those who we love and those who love us.
My love to all
Happy New Year!
