a frozen civilization- Skyway Bridge and Hamilton, January 2009God's voice thunders in marvelous ways;
he does great things beyond our understanding.
He says to the snow, 'Fall on the earth,'
and to the rain shower, 'Be a mighty downpour.'
So that all men he has made may know his work,
he stops every man from his labor.
The animals take cover;
they remain in their dens.
The tempest comes out from its chamber,
the cold from the driving winds.
The breath of God produces ice,
and the broad waters become frozen.
He loads the clouds with moisture;
he scatters his lightning through them.
At his direction they swirl around
over the face of the whole earth
to do whatever he commands them.
He brings the clouds to punish men,
or to water his earth and show his love.
Job 37:5-13

You know, it's amazing how these words written so long ago, are just so applicable to us even today. Why would Job write about snow? I love how you can read the Bible all your life and still come across verses that are so fresh and "new". And even if you have read the verses before they bring on "new" meaning each and every time you come upon them- or God leads you to them.
Nice text.

it's the greatest thing ever! :)
anything is possible if God wills it.
indeed anyone who knows the mind of God? and the man who can stop him. I believe that all his plan is best for the life he has created
