Living Vertically

They’re Silver!

Two hour delay in the start of the school day because of ice. Wild.

While we slept He gently coated our entire world with a blanket of ice. He cleared the sky of clouds and opened the dawn with a fresh miracle of contrasts and brightness. The dazzling spring sun blasted through the forest that shelters my front door, creating a striking display of millions of sparkles across the landscape. The spring buds on the red maple trees now have a layer of transparent ice, and as the sun warms the atmosphere, the ice melts o-so-softly into hesitant drips of water, reminding us of the power of the Lord’s provision. The sun.

The new growth, the momentary setback of coldness, the sun. The sun shines incredible light into the ice and makes it sparkle!
