Late winter ice shards are the attraction of the north shore of Lake Superior during late February. We have gained an extra hour of daylight already since December, and the hope of warming weather brings hope to the heart. But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience. Romans 8:25 Hope is a driving force in life, and if will look around us, we get filled with just enough for today, and that's enough.
Thick shore ice along Lake Superior creates a beautiful ice cathedral. The broken sheet of ice pushed onshore by the winds and waved of late February creates some stunning structures of clear ice. “Have you entered the storehouses of the snow, or have you seen the storehouses of the hail... Job 38:22 The ice sculptures are crafted by the hand of God overnight and are new each day!
The setting moon slowly descends on the snow-covered shores of Lake Superior. It is a good feeling to see open water after a long winter. Like cold water to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country. Proverbs 25:25 Hope comes in many forms, and a quiet February landscape assures of warming days ahead.
