February 4 – Winter White

Winter brings its beauty in the form of white snow-covered fields. The pure white landscapes of the Northland gleam with crystal snowflakes and hush the sounds of the countryside.

Snow and clouds appear white because they reflect almost all sunlight from their surfaces, absorbing only a tiny amount of the visible spectrum.

Without a breeze, the puffy light snow stayed on the trees until an afternoon gust blew it all away in a minute. What a gift to enjoy this February scene.

“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. Matthew 5:8 

Just like the snow on the trees, life is here one minute and gone the next. Take a minute today to be thankful; you may not have another.
