Chaos or comfort?
It is snowing now. A fluffy wet snow. It is even accumulating! But as I walk back to the dorm from work I can't get it out of my mind how comforting just watching snow is.
It happens every time I am coming back from work, walking through the snow, and no matter how my day was that day how ad or how good, I am always struck with the beautiful imagery in that frozen chryisiline H2O. This time was no different. I was standing there looking towards a light and all I could see was bright snow. Fliting fluttering, to and frow, this way and that, constant movement, unpredictable, each flake unique.
The world looks at snow and if frightened by the chaos, the unpredictability. They are afraid because they cannot KNOW where the flake is going. They can't understand snow in its' fullness. But as a Christian I KNOW that God KNOWS where the snow came from, where it is going, what it looks like, and WHY it is. How comforting! To know that God even understands snow. To know that God even understands me. I am not much better then snow but God KNOWS ME!! He knows where I have been, where I am going, what I look like, and WHY I am. I am unique in God and I have a purpose in God. I just need to fall to the best of my abilities, and trust in God to lead.
