The Message in The Blizzard

Once over the holidays, the family and I traveled up to Denver, Colorado to visit Linda’s sister.  The morning after we arrived, a blizzard was forecast. When I awoke early that morning, I could see no trace of snow on the ground but a few flakes were starting to fall.  By nine that morning snow covered the ground and we decided we better run the store to pick up some food. By the time we returned an hour later the roads were almost impassable. By that night a foot and a half of snow surrounded the house and all major roads and the airport had been shut down. The next morning the entire city was shut down. No one could get anywhere. It reminded me of what was written in Job 37:6-7 which says, “For to the snow He says, 'Fall on the earth,' and to the downpour and the rain, 'Be strong.' He seals the hand of every man, that all men may know His work.” In spite of all our technology and skill, God was able with simple snowfall to shut down a city in less than a day. The message in a blizzard shows us what a powerful God we serve!
