Dear God,
We get it. We really do. You’re good with snow. You’re REALLY good with snow. You’ve painted so many beautiful scenes with it this year.
I’ve oohed and aahed over and over, glorying in the wonder of it all.
But here’s the thing. It’s getting a little old now.
I always wondered how the Israelites could be so ungrateful for the manna that provided free meals for 40 years, but I’m starting to have sympathy for their miracle fatigue.
I don’t want to offend you, because, you know, you are God and smite and plagues and all that. But all this white snow is sort of a one-note, if you know what I mean. Maybe you could try another medium? Like grass and flowers and blue sky. Trees with leaves, those are always nice too. You know, that thing called spring? You created it after all.
And about this really cold weather. You are the one who made us humans without fur. We get chilly, so could you please turn up the heat? Isn’t that what you made the sun for? It’s been so long since I felt its warmth, I can’t remember. Hey, even you chose a warm climate when you came down here to live for 33 years.
You see I live close to this really cool place you made called Lake Michigan. Yeah, you know it? Well, it’s sort of going to waste sitting there all frozen and stuff when we could be digging in the sand and swimming in the pretty blue water. BLUE. That’s a different color than white.
So, yeah. That’s really all I want. For you to stop the snow and warm things up little. No biggie, really. It’s not like I’m asking you to part the Red Sea or walk on water. Just turn the dial to spring, please?
Thank you.
Amen.
Sincerely,
Me
Ha! I totally totally agree! I think we’ve finally turned the corner here in Kansas. Praise God! (But of course it’s okay if you change your mind in April, Big Guy!)
Oh my goodness! I thought we had a long winter. I hope that is the end of the white stuff for you. Our weather is slowly improving, we had 2 super nice days followed by a rain/sleet/snow thunderstorm? on Tuesday night but it is supposed to be real spring weather from this point forward. Hopefully, it will be coming your way and melt your snow.
Ah, climate change! Our winter up here in Alaska has been quite pleasant! Then again, we did have snow on the ground until May last year.
I am with you on this. Although your winter looks so much worse than ours. But I am still here with you. I saw a funny sign at a church recently it said. Whomever is praying for more snow pleas stop. I am with them on that. I like your prayer much better.
