Winter in Michigan


This is a picture taken from our from door this morning. Today is another dreary, gray Sunday in Michigan! It seems we have had quite a few of them this winter. It has been raining on top of the snow and freezing to make for a slippery day. At least today we can be at church and be with friends and worship the Lord! The Detroit area doesn't usually get the full brunt of the bad weather like cities closer to the lakes. I am actually thankful for the seasons in Michigan. When you get tired of one season, you know that another is on the way! And spring will soon be here! I enjoy the spring and fall most of all, but the snow in winter can be beautiful, and the lazy, hot summer days are nice, too. The definite change of the seasons is one thing that makes Michigan beautiful - even the Detroit area! We have a lot to be thankful for - some people only have the hot sun all year long! (ha!)

"Both day and night belong to you; you made the starlight and the sun. You set the boundaries of the earth, and you made both summer and winter."  Psalm 74: 16,17
