Funny, funny day. It was snowing when I woke up and for most of the morning. But by 4:00 when I walked the dog, it was sunny with a perfectly blue sky and most of the snow was gone. It was really cool to see it hanging on in the shadows though. I also saw crocuses, snowdrops, and a little yellow flower that I don't know the name of. It's still a bit unnerving to see spring flowers on February 8. Signs of hope and reminders to do my part to care for creation.
I Skyped into confirmation tonight. They have such energy. Wow. In the midst of their silliness, I see God working in and through and around them and they give me hope for the world and for the church.
Today's quote: "All of us have times in our lives where despite our best efforts, our good intentions, and our fear for those we love, they will make their choices and we are left with no other tasks but to let them go, and to 'pray them home.'"-- Maria Evans
