Bible Study Snowed Out!

We were snowed out this morning. And I, for one, was really disappointed. This is an amazing study, and I was ready to tackle a new chapter.

But then I woke up this morning to the beautiful snow fall. The big luscious flakes creating a world as near to heaven as I can imagine. The children are home from school, all four of them snuggled up on the sofa together. Peace on earth, or at least in my corner of the earth.

Then I realized, God never has a snow day. Never. Maybe we didn't have Bible Study, but we have God 24/7. While I'm not sitting in front of a teaching video, he has much to teach me and show me. He has many blessings for me. So I need not be disappointed.

Thank you, Father, for this beautiful snow fall. Only you could have concocted such perfection. Thank you for this morning without rushing around, a morning of togetherness, a morning of peace, and a morning to absorb your blessings.

In my devotional this week, I read that I am exactly where God wants me to be. Even when I want to rush things along. I want a two book deal. I want that choice speaking engagement. I want my children to be mature in their faith. I want my husband to pick up his dirty socks, already. But in all these things, God has a perfect plan.

And He has such plans for all of us. Even on a snow day.
