SNOW DAY TODAY.. WAS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!
====================
SNOWFLAKES ARE LIKE "ANGEL DUST"
The world needs tolerance, love and trust,
And kindness scattered like Angel Dust!
We need quiet moments, a lot more peace,
That wars may end and hatred cease.
We need caring friends, some hope, some mirth,
And a glimmer to guide us here on this earth.
We need joyful hearts, cures for disease,
And gentle reminders to say 'thank you' and 'please'. We need to protect the mouse and the dove, For the smallest of creatures were created through love. We need to remember stray kittens, green trees, For we are no greater or lesser than these. How to begin the changes we must? By scattering kindness like Angel Dust!
CONGRATULATIONS JENNA.. CASSIE, SHANNON, AND FAMILY... WE LOVE ALL OF YOU! DRIVE SAFELY SIS.. GOING AND COMING! ... ALWAYS!

The New Footprints~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now imagine you and the Lord Jesus are walking together in the snow.
For much of the way the Lord's footprints go along steadily, consistently, rarely varying in the pace. But your prints are in a disorganized stream of zig zags, starts, stops, turnarounds, circles, departures, and returns. For much of the way it seems to go like this. But gradually, your footprints come in line with the Lord's, soon paralleling His consistently. You and Jesus are walking as true friends. This seems perfect, but then an interesting thing happens; your footprints that once etched the snow next to the Master's are now walking precisely in His steps. Inside His large footprints is the smaller safely enclosed. You and Jesus are becoming one; this goes on for many miles. But gradually you notice another change. The footprints inside the larger footprints seem to grow larger. Eventually it disappears altogether. There is only one set of footprints. They have become one; again this goes on for a long time. But then something awful happens. The second set of footprints is back. This time it seems even worse than before. Zig zags all over the place. Stop...start. Deep gashes in the snow. A veritable mess of prints. You're amazed and shocked. But this is the end of your dream.
Now you speak: "Lord, I understand the first scene with the zig zags, fits, starts, and so on. I was a new Christian, just learning. But You walked on through the storm and helped me learn to walk with You."
"That is correct," replied the Lord.
"Then, when the smaller footprints were inside of Yours, I was actually learning to walk in Your steps. I followed You very closely."
"Very good. You have understood everything so far."
"Then the smaller footprints grew and eventually filled in with Yours. I suppose that I was actually growing so much that I was becoming more like You in every way."
"Precisely."
"But this is my question, Lord. Was there a regression of something? The footprints went back to two, and this time it was worse than the first." The Lord smiles, then laughs. "You didn't know?" He says, "That was when we danced."
FOR HE WILL TURN YOUR MOURNING INTO DANCING!
==========================================
DANCE IN THE SNOW..
DANCE IN THE SNOW..
With anxiety in the air
And tension everywhere
On the wings of the wind
The storm roared inAs the storm raged around
They bowed their heads down
As they began to pray
They heard Him say
Dance-dance in the snow-have no fear
Dance-dance in the snow-I am here
Dance-dance in the snow-this won’t last
Dance-dance in the snow-the storm will pass
Dance-dance in the snow-I’ll see you through
Dance-dance in the snow-I’ll take care of you
Every life it seems
Has storms that it brings
When snow clouds fills the sky
And wind and storms from up high
When your storm moves in
Just trust in Him
In the storms roar
Take shelter in the Lord
Dance-dance in the snow-have no fear
Dance-dance in the snow-He is there
Dance-dance in the snow-this won’t last
Dance-dance in the snow-the storm will pass
Dance-dance in the snow-He’ll see you through
Dance-dance in the snow-He’ll take care of you
