Day 2: The God of Winter


Today is

GROUNDHOG DAY.

All will be gathered for this yearly event

to see if winter will be longer or shorter.

Who decides this?

A GROUNDHOG.

Think about it.

A GROUNDHOG'S

weather prediction ability

is

TRUSTED

while the

GROUNDHOG

is just being a

GROUNDHOG,

having no idea that

it is deciding whether or not

winter will be longer or shorter.

What if life was that easy.

If you see your shadow then

you will have

your ANSWER.

If you don't see your

shadow then you

will have your ANSWER.

Let's try it.

Go outside.

Ask GOD a question.

Now if you see your shadow then you will have to wait

another 6 weeks for your ANSWER to come.

If you don't see your shadow you will have your answer

sooner than you thought.

So if you know when your ANSWER is coming

then would you still be waiting for it come

or would you be

filled with

PEACE because you know GOD WILL ANSWER.

Therefore,

does GOD's timing matter if you KNOW HE WILL ANSWER?

What if the snow never melted?

IS GOD STILL GOD? Is HE STILL IN CONTROL? Does HE STILL LOVE you unconditionally as HIS CHOSEN ADOPTED son/daughter? Does HE STILL listen to your cries and wipes your tears? Does HE STILL rejoice over you with singing? Does HE STILL want freedom in every area of your life? Does HE STILL carry your burdens? Does HE STILL fill you with strength when you are weak? Does HE STILL give you the PEACE that transcends all understanding? Does HE STILL turn into good the not so good in your life? YES! YES! YES!

What are you waiting for to spring up in your life?

What is your heart set on to happen before you can truly enjoy your life?

Whether in the frigid snow, or the grayest of grays, or the sunniest of sun,

no matter what season of life you are in,

GOD IS STILL GOD~

FOREVER FAITHFUL

as that is all HE knows to be.

Always ready and willing to take your hand, to pull you out of the winter in your life.

Always ready to shine HIS LIGHT on your gray days.

Always ready to rejoice with you in your spring.

So I ask you~

What if spring never came? No need to crawl back into your

hole like

the Groundhog

because

GOD IS ALWAYS.

GOD IS GOD in

Winter,

Spring,

Summer

and

Fall.

HE never changes.

Let GOD be the rock you stand on in this ever changing wobbly world. May your heart bloom with

HIS GLORIOUS PRESENCE

no matter what season you are experiencing

for

"The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my GOD is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold" (Psalm 18:2) .

Whether the Groundhog sees its shadow today or not,

GOD is

"STILL MY GOD"

(listen to the song below)
