Good Morning, God
Lord, it's cold outside! All of the headlines these days put into words what our bodies already tell us - Winter is here!
Lord, we can speak of the obvious somewhat flippantly, but there is a very serious side to this winter weather and it is usually hidden from most of us. The serious side stays behind doors and windows that leak in the cold air like a sieve. The serious side tries to heat a home or an apartment or one room with an open oven door and four burners - while the family wears jackets and gloves. The serious side, Lord finds it difficult to stay warm because there is not enough warm food to feed the furnace inside the body. The serous side does not have a warm vehicle in which to travel. The serious side, is these winter days, may not even have a warm place to go.
Lord, may we who are cozy warm open our hearts, our homes, our warmth to folks living in the coldness of life these days.
In Jesus name, Amen
