We had a dusting of snow Monday night. It was enough to cover the walkways and any flat surface but the grass was still standing valiantly. There was enough on the front steps to go out and make a few snowballs. I was not tempted. The magic is gone. Warmth and comfort are more compelling.
I imagine that my grandchildren are dragging their father out to see what they can make. They learned about snow angels over Christmas in Minnesota. If they got enough snow they will be out swishing and whooping. They may be doing it even if they don’t have enough snow. If I were down at their house I might be out washing their faces with snow. That is what the magic does for you.
I will find my magic in other ways, thank you.

Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship
Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship
This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.
Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.
