"It's snowing today in Washington, D.C. and I had a beautiful walk coming back from the March for Life this afternoon. Tonight I will enjoy another walk through the winter wonderland.
"Not everyone likes snow but it is an amazing work of God. He takes a barren winter landscape and creates it anew. I can almost hear the Lord saying, 'Behold, I make all things new!'
"In the modern world we often walk past the glory of God hardly noticing the gifts that He provides every day. Tonight and tomorrow I don't want to miss God's gifts. It is true that these gifts come along with weather-related hardships, but maybe - just maybe - God can get a few of us here on the East Coast to stop for just a minute, rest a while, and behold His glory."
In a recent commentary, Monsignor Charles Pope (pastor of Holy Comforter-Saint Cyprian Parish,
Washington, DC) reflected on opportunities to connect with God during winter snowfalls.
