Snow is God's reminder of what grace looks like.
It doesn't pick and choose where it will fall:
it covers everything...
Especially now, Lord,
in the middle of winter
when it's snowing all around us...
Especially now, when,
at every twist and turn,
the snow is piled high...
Especially now, when
the brilliant silver-blue
fills our senses with your beauty...
Especially now, remind us
how you blanket us with grace, Lord,
how you cover us with mercy...
How your grace falls from the heavens
down on us and all our neighbors,
on our country and the world...
How we're snowed in by your kindness,
not by flakes and not by flurries
but in drifts of your compassion,
your mercy and your grace...
Amen.
