Snow is coming! We've already had our first official "cat-tracking" snow of the year, more snow and cold temps coming this weekend.  I secretly love the snow, absolutely love it, it's so peaceful and beautiful to watch from inside a warm house.  It's the driving in it, walking in it, working in it that gets difficult . . . not to mention the other difficulties of winter like the cold and lack of daylight hours. 

In spite of difficulties in life, we are trying to learn to be content in whatever circumstances we are in.   Philippians 4:11 says: "Not that I speak in respect for want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content." 

From my daughter's homeschool curriculum is a great poem about being content:
 
I am contented knowing well
He has come in my heart to dwell.
My Lord provideth, come what may,
Whate'er I need from day to day.

Praying you enjoy your winter!
