whiter than snow...


...Lord Jesus, I long to be perfectly whole; I want Thee forever to live in my soul; Break down every idol, cast out ever foe - Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow...


So I woke up with this song in my head this morning. Even though tomorrow is my birthday - and we are going to more than likely be snowed in, it's beautiful.

When I am constantly surrounded by the "dirty" world, all the sin of the world...mine included. It's just refreshing see the pure,white snow...and be reminded that God forgives our sins...and that he has a place waiting for us in Heaven, if only we will accept it. AMAZING! That's better than any birthday gift I could ask for!!

I do have to admit that I have been a whiner this morning. We are supposed to go out with friends for my birthday tonight...going out to Red Lobster for dinner, and Clif even ordered me an Ice Cream cake from Ben & Jerry's...my favorite... Cherry Garcia! :-( ha! It will be ok. As long as I have my hubby I guess...

The snow is a great reminder that we ourselves can be whiter than snow.
