Deeper Than the Extreme Snows of Winter
(which will be next year’s normal)
God’s Blessings Pour Down Over
Us God-Made Saints
and even over God’s and our enemies alike.
God’s Gift to Us is That We Notice
and Share Blessings with All.
Psalm 57:4
I lie down among lions that greedily devour human prey; their teeth are spears and arrows, their tongues sharp swords.
Acts 14:17
God has not left Godself without a witness in doing good—giving you rains from heaven and fruitful seasons, and filling you with food and your hearts with joy.
Words of Grace For Today
There are signs everywhere, signs of God’s good blessings pouring over us,
if we only open our eyes and
ears and
hearts
to see, hear and know.
Even as our enemies drive us into the wilderness where we must sleep among all that is there and we must lie down among lions that greedily devour human prey; their teeth are spears and arrows, their tongues sharp swords …
even then the goodness of God surrounds us, for there are many witnesses of God’s people, accompanied by God, who have been fed to the lions, and
…
the lions became docile, uninterested in devouring God along with God’s people.
Such works of God’s great works are not just the stories of our ancestors,
these stories are our stories, for
again and again God has delivered us from our enemies so
that we have lived yet another day, and
another week, and
another year,
…
while God’s blessings pour down over us.
Thanks be to God.
