John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. The world shouts, "Peace, peace!". But it isn't there! The Holidays emphasize it, but there's a hollowness. Only with Jesus in our hearts can we have true peace in the midst of our storms!

"Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow". Psalm 51:7 What a beautiful picture of our recent snow storms! We may try and struggle through the storm, or wait out the storm. However, once it's finished, the beauty of it is obvious! Let's try to be patient in our storms. Don't rush it! There can be beauty even in the midst, and definitely after! God knows✝️
