This morning's snowfall

My new friend Natalia.

No, this isn’t an archived photo from January, but just this afternoon.  After a day of rain I thought we were finished with the snow, but I guess God had other plans.  It is good to know that we can find treasures in God’s creation, even the snow (Job 38:22).

English club/Bible study on Tuesday went well, and we had several new folks. I met a girl named Natalia, who knows English well and offered to translate for me if I ever need her. She is a believer and has traveled several places for short-term missions trips. I spent most of today with the Beal family attending Alexandria’s and Cassia’s “concourse”, or piano competition. Both girls played wonderfully, and it was a blessing to see how God has given them a talent with which they can glorify him. For the lunch break we went to one of the girls’ favorite restaurants and I enjoyed a delicious cherry struedel smothered in cherry sauce.
