Wintertime Thoughts

Jean Davis
The cold wind blows but we're all warm inside.

Did you ever stop to wonder where all the wild animals hide?

Each one was made by God with it's own needs in mind.

From the polar bears and penguins in the coldest climate to the tropical creatures, each and every kind.

Some have fur to keep them warm.

Some find good warm places to hibernate.

It's really amazing how God gave each animal a certain intelligence.

We may say it's all just fate.

Watch Mr. Squirrel as he prepares for Winter.

Busy, busy gathering food and building a nest.

When the cold wind blows and even snow he just curls up for a rest.

Even the ants and honeybees store up for the Winter.

They have a built-in motivator to tell them what to do.

We are supposed to be more intelligent than they.

Is that not true?

We put our faith in God to supply our needs but that does not relieve us from responsibility.

We need to work together with God and a greater harvest we'll see.

Not even to mention the peace of mind of knowing we have done our very best.

Soon we'll find this is the key to a perfect time of rest.
