Look at winter, with it's blustery winds it's blanket of snow who would ever guess that in the middle of things around you dying there is also Life on it's way.
I love the snow with all the unique flakes having their own personality. We can not detect their beauty trying to gaze at them as one flake but when they gather together Wow what a glorious sight to behold. I remember one Winter in the evening it had just snowed a heavy snow that in the moon light looked as though it were still day time . I remember it being so silent. It was one of the most beautiful sights to behold. After the leaves fall and the branches lay bare the sight is rather gloomy and hopeless looking. Death is the absence of life. But the truth is that the trees are very much alive they have transformed into a different state. This state is one of preparation for new things to come. One of my favorite songs is the Rose By Bette Midler She brings us a glimpse of the hope to come by sharing that beneath all the cold darkness of winter lies a seed that with the love of the sun will grow t to become a beautiful rose. This is what happens to us as people as we grow we change ever so slightly , but with every change our shape is transformed and we to shall grow to become a rose in the garden of God.
