A Thankful November: Fresh Snow

If it’s going to be winter, snow is better than no snow.  We got a soft layer of snow last night and it certainly makes things less dreary. There’s nothing gloomier than dark winter days without white snow to brighten things up.

It also makes things more hopeful for those who are waiting impatiently to ski or skijor.

So I’m thankful for God’s gift of fresh snow.

Theological Term of the Week: Suspended Until Later

 

 

I’m going to be busy with some projects other than blogging for next few weeks, so I’ve decided to put the weekly theological term posts on hold until shortly after Christmas.  I’ve finished (I think!) all the terms dealing with scripture that I planned to define. (If you can think of one that I obviously missed, please let me know.) When I start things up again in January, I’m moving to the subject of God. I have a couple of terms suggested to me that fit that category and I’m open to lots more suggestions.
