Snow Day

I was praying in the church this afternoon. I glanced up from the Tabernacle to look outside and I watched the snow falling down. It struck me that snowflakes are lot like the graces that God showers on us. Sometimes we brush them off, sometimes we push them off to the side, and sometimes we stop for a moment, close our eyes and enjoy that soft caress on our cheeks and lashes, as we remember that He is right there with us, wanting to give us everything pure and beautiful and perfect.
