Thank you God for blowing on that oscillation over Greenland that has been repeatedly sending snow and cold and suffering to our area.  I thank you for the cold temperatures so that there are fewer flies this coming year but we are all worn down, disheartened, and sickly from the pounding.  Since Washington DC got 3 ft of snow, does this mean that Hell finally froze?  that Congress will work for their constituants as they are intended?  I pray it is so.

Thank you God for putting Mary in my life.  I had never gotten to meet a truly gentle spirit in all the days i have walked the earth in this lifetime until she came into my life.  Her posts have been so kind, patient, and genuine!  I am inspired by her honesty.  Thankfully pruning dead limbs do not hurt and I pray you prune us when the sap isn't running to those live ones that need to be removed to achieve true spiritual growth.

Thank you for protecting me and showing us all the things we need to know---whether we want to see them or not.  With truth, we can not be deceived later on.

Yours truly,
Lori
