It is the day of the week that I put the garbage out for the trucks. Doing so this morning left a few melting crystals of moisture on my crown.
The day is filled with hopes that enough snow will fall to restore life to our rivers, tempered with the knowledge that our way of travel will become narrow, and treacherous dangers will lurk along the way. This day brings hope of restoration from the drought; but it brings anxiety as well--last year's early snow deceived us, and the winter was far too dry and warm. Ski resorts were busy in December, and bankrupt in February.

Originally posted by WulebgrI realize that the universe is divided into two camps: the forces of Warmth and the forces of Cold. Warmth is regenerative, life affirming, and pleasant.

They should be hunted down like beasts and exterminated.
You are a sinner who deserves condemnation.

"APRIL is the cruellest month, breeding
Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing
Memory and desire, stirring
Dull roots with spring rain.
Winter kept us warm, covering
Earth in forgetful snow, feeding
A little life with dried tubers."
The beginning of one of the most sacredest texts in the English canon.
Thomas is not speaking of the warmth of tropical winters, he's referring to the snows in the Alps. Real ski country.

This is probably the most overlooked verse in the Bible.
Matt 7:1-2 [b]JUDGE NOT, that ye be not judged. 2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.[/b]

Are you comfortable with God judging you in this way?

Comfort isn't really the issue, is it?
