Whiter than snow.

The snow is making it way down the mountains. Each morning when we wake up and look out the snow level is lower.  All day yesterday "Q" would ask when we would be getting snow, like every 5 minutes. The snow covers the land and gives it a fresh clean look. Just like the snow serves to cover the death brush and barren ground so Jesus blood will cover the dirt in our lives.

Today in the children's class at church they were learning about the two roads one leading to eternal life and the other to eternal death. The teacher had the children decide to which path different behaviors, habits, and choices belonged. But ultimately we need Jesus blood to cover us making us whiter than snow, like the snow covers the mountainside.

Our foster boy "Q" seemed to really be soaking the idea of the two paths. This evening he commented that he really liked church this morning. My goal is that he will learn about Jesus while with us and go away with a better picture of who Jesus is from his time here.
