A Glorious Gift

A Glorious Gift (contest Snow - Michael mc dermott) Flurries fill a world outside my window seated I peek through curtains heavy to keep out cold chill; created a beautiful crystal clear wonder once--a blurry haze; amazed am I by unique individual flakes formed to minds thrill awed squeals during their harmonious gathering together to cover grime, dirt, fall to forgive in majestic forget a past of filth masked... presented a loving erase skirting ugly regret with its scarred pitiful face: "“Come, now, and let us set matters straight between us,” says Jehovah. “Though your sins are like scarlet, They will be made as white as snow; Though they are as red as crimson cloth, They will become like wool. If you show willingness and listen, You will eat the good things of the land." Isa. 1:18, 19. Forever in knowledge to grow: "This means everlasting life, their coming to know you, the only true God, and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ." John 17:3. Make no mistake and miss this splendid opportunity provided because of their selfless love shown: “For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, so that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life." John 3:16. Yes, our very lives are at stake: "Have you entered the storehouses of the snow, Or have you seen the storehouses of the hail, Which I have reserved for the time of distress, For the day of battle and war?" Job 38:22, 23.
