We have had a lot of snow this year. It made me think of a verse in the bible that talks about snow. It is Isaiah 1:18, “Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be like wool.” King David also talks about snow in Psalm 51:7, “Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.”  Both of these verses speak to the power of forgiveness and grace, provided by God and His great mercy toward us. He washes away our sins and makes us  white as snow. Stop, and think about that for a minute! We can not get ourselves clean enough to stand in the face of God, only He can do that for us. Just like the snow that covers the dead grass, mud, and ground, our dirty sins are covered with the righteousness (Isaiah 61:10) of Christ that makes us white as snow. The next time you see snow on the ground, think of these verses, and thank God!
