They actually got the forecast primarily right and the snow, ice, and snow is here to the tune of 6-8 inches. Trees are down everywhere and many people are out of power and its going to be a really cold night. It reminds me of the old saying, "Be careful what you ask for, you just might get it." A whole bunch of people really wanted the snow and may have not considered the possibility of the downed trees and power lines, because they just wanted to see and play in the beauiful white fluffy stuff. But after it has fallen and broken limbs and been driven on and turned black from the street sludge, it's just not that pretty anymore.
Sin has that same kind of appeal that draws us to it and then turns dirty and breaks things and causes far more hurt and problems than we realized it would when we were anticipating the joy of the momentary.
Here is to hoping you are safe, warm and have power and food. I really hope that you can get out and make to our pep rally on Sunday morning! Then after we come to church, let's go out and be the church!
