The Beauty of God's Creation







God blessed us with a beautiful snowfall this past weekend.  The monastery grounds were clothed with snow and it looked absolutely glorious.  There is nothing like a gentle snowfall to gentle one's spirit.  It is as if God is asking us to stop, look and slow down a little.  Some of the sisters were able to go for a walk in the snow and one sister was able to cross country ski.  Many enjoyed it from a window view.  Sister Mary Margaret enjoyed it with her camera and I share some of her pictures with you today.  


It is snowing again today and is supposed to snow through the night.  Let's all take a chance to enjoy it, to slow down and receive God's gracious gift.
