And, it's cold. In fact, I was not enjoying it this morning and I gave myself a little bit of a lecture - - I mean I have several months of winter in front of me. If I'm complaining so soon, it's not a good sign. Mary, we have only a trace of snow. And, it’s cold.

Temperatures hovering around 0. Children frothing at the mouth for a Christmas tree. Dogs with cabin fever. Yes, it's the whole package! I don't know if this snow will last, but I love how it makes everything look clean and picturesque through the fingerprinted glass. I live in Eastern Montana, so there are no mountains to redeem the view....just endless miles of prairie and sky. And you? Do you have snow, or just the promise of it? Snow.

And you? Do you have snow, or just the promise of it?

I've forgiven you every week, thinking I'd win the camera! Drats. This has been a great series of question/answers and I have much to chew on, regarding forgiveness. Mostly it's revealed to me that my attitude of forgiveness isn't necessarily Biblically based all the time; instead, I usually based it on feelings and obligation. While I'm still grinding away at a couple of your answers, I have more clarity with the whole Christian package of forgiving others.
