This winter has been one of those winters. We have had more snow than typical and
unusually cold temps. In fact, some
areas of the country have had those bone chilling cold temps, the temps that
cause the freeze to go deep into the ground.
When that happens, there are typically a number of concerns to be aware
of. For instance, the underground water
pipes have a possibility of freezing as well as bursting. Not a problem one wants to deal with in the
bone chilling temps. There is also the
possibility crops will be lost as the plants cannot withstand the extreme
temperatures. Yet, if the ground has a
solid cover of snow the bone chilling temps do not cause the freeze to go as
deep into the ground. The snow cover
protects the ground from the elements.
We too will die without a protective cover. Without the forgiveness and love covering us
through the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, we will die. It is through Him and only Him that we have
the ability to live eternally. “Blessed
is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered” Psalm
32:1. It is humbling to know that we are
covered; covered with a protection from the grips of evil. Jesus won the victory over evil through His death
and resurrection. Jesus paid the price
for our sins through His death and resurrection. We are covered!
