Sabbath Keeping

by Sandra Bennett
Sabbath Keeping· TCF

5 Dec
 ~ Cove snow ~
“As snow in summer and rain in harvest,
      So honor is not fitting for a fool.”
                 ~ Proverbs 26:1 ~ 

“Advice is like snow – the softer it falls, the longer it dwells upon, and the deeper it sinks into the  mind.” ~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge ~

“An aged Christian, with the snow of time upon his head, may remind us that those points of earth are whitest which are nearest to heaven.” ~ Edwin Hubbel Chapin ~

“Courtesies cannot be borrowed like snow shovels; 
you must have some of your own.” 
~ John Wanamaker ~

“Cruel and cold is the judgement of man, Cruel as winter, and cold as the snow; But by-and-by will the deed and the plan Be judged by the motive that lieth below.”  ~ Lewis J. Bates ~

“Unless we make Christmas an occasion to share our blessings, 
all the snow in Alaska won’t make it “white”. ” 
~ Bing Crosby ~

“When snow falls, nature listens.” ~ Antoinette van Kleeff ~

“Come now, and let us reason together,”
      Says the LORD,
      “ Though your sins are like scarlet,
      They shall be as white as snow;
      Though they are red like crimson,
      They shall be as wool.”
~ Isaiah 1:18 ~ 
Blessings ~ redemption ~ nature ~  good health ~ prayer ~ faith ~ God’s love ~

Merry Christmas,
Sandra

    Beautiful picture, Sandra… and some very beautiful words to accompany it!
    My favorite is the passage from Isaiah 1:18- I love that verse!
