The fluffy snow piles up.
The snowdrifts build.
The intersection corners are rounded.
The oncoming traffic is hidden.
And all the world is smothered in white.
And just as the world is blanketed, so my life is covered up with goodness. It doesn't stop coming. It covers every part of every day. And I am so grateful for His coming and for His love and for all the blessings He gives.
