winter
well bob, I played ice hockey for the first time, and I have to say I know now why you love hockey. Well, now I do too. Last night there was a monster snowfall. If there weren't any street lights, you wouldn't have been able to see anything. It was incredible. In Romans it says that God is shown to be real through nature. It isn't worded that way, but something along those lines it there. Last night I realized that nature is probably the most powerful force on this Earth, except for God and angels. Nothing can stop nature. We think we can stay safe from it, but we can't build or do anything that couldn't be entirely erased by nature. We are at the mercy of Nature, and through that, at the mercy of God. Last night it was just so real for me. I looked at the swirling snow, and saw how traffic was slowed, how visibility was almost down the tubes, and how it just kept coming, in waves of whiteness, and you realize that as advanced as we think we are, nature still reigns supreme on this Earth. Sadly, because of the Fall, I assume, man's eyes have been blinded to the magnificence of nature and it's masterful craftsmanship. The Earth still belongs to God, but it's inhabitants are blind. Even the smallest mole knows that God is Lord, but we humans with our "SUVs and weather satellites and robots and computers" miss the blaring clues, again and again.
