This morning, we awoke to snow on the ground. I immediately turned on the TV to check school closings and delays. I also wanted to see what the roads were like in our region. I was planning on attending a workshop in Plainview today which is over any hour drive on clear roads.
So I was interested to see what I should expect. It became apparent rather quickly that the winter weather hit harder north of us than it did at home. Before leaving the house, I called the gentleman responsible for the workshop today and he informed me that the event had been postponed for a week due to weather.
I have to admit, with all I need to get done today, I was a bit relieved. So I headed to the office. As I drove, I noticed a huge difference in the amount of traffic on the road. Most people were still at home. Schools are starting later than normal to try and alleviate some of the traffic that is typical around 8:00 am. Some businesses decided to open later as well.
As I have reflected on this morning, I have had to smile a bit. Isn’t it amusing that in a world so developed with technological advances in transportation, weather forecasting and the like, a little snow still alters our entire existence.
Maybe we aren’t all that after all?!
God is still on the throne – and like it or not – we aren’t!
Just a thought.
Just when we think we have all our ducks in a row huh Brian? I love that about God. No matter how organized and scheduled we are He shows us who really rocks!
[…] Yesterday, I made mention of the fact that the snow really did a number on the plans of many people. You can read that post here. […]
