Whispers in the Wind
The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.—John 3:8 (NIV)
“Come now, let us settle the matter,” says the Lord. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow.”—Isaiah 1:18 (NIV)
NOTHING PAINTS THE earth cleaner than fresh snow. A blanket of snow can be a trigger to reflect on Isaiah 1:18. Only God can take the imperfections of our hearts and turn them into something pure, clean and lovely. He can forgive and help heal our anger, resentments, and addictions. He can help us dissolve the blocks so that we may grow closer to Him.
Forgive my transgressions, Lord, and keep me from repeating them.

In that day the Lord Almighty will be a glorious crown, a beautiful wreath for the remnant of his people.—Isaiah 28:5 (NIV)
Therefore say: “This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Although I sent them far away among the nations and scattered them among the countries, yet for a little while I have been a sanctuary for them in the countries where they have gone.”—Ezekiel 11:16 (NIV)
