Pastor's Pen

Brothers & Sisters,

 

I snapped this photo while shoveling snow this morning. I cannot remember the last time we got this much snow. It truly is beautiful to look at. Before I dug my shovel into the ground I had a moment of hesitancy. I almost didn't want to disturb it. There's nothing quite like the still quiet air after a freshly fallen snow. As I was clearing off the steps of the porch I looked up at the risen sun and was struck with a wonderful reminder. 

 

Because the Son is risen I have been washed white as snow. 

 

Let this reminder of the Gospel carry you through your day as it carried me through the rest of my snow shoveling!

 

It sure was different preaching to a screen and I missed seeing you in person. I enjoyed the many pictures sent my way showing your families gathered in the living room! If you were unable to tune in you can find the sermon links above. Stay safe and warm out there. I hope to connect with you this week. 

 

“Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.” -Psalm‬ ‭51‬:‭7‬ ‭ESV‬‬
