After three days of freezing fog, the forests across the Northland became covered with rime ice. Rime ice forms when supercooled water liquid droplets freeze onto surfaces. The incredible beauty caught everyone's attention. God seems to gently "breathe" on the earth as it becomes covered with frost. When daylight breaks and the curtain of freezing clouds lift off the landscape, the wonder of God's creation reveals His Glory for our pleasure. He gives snow like wool; He scatters the frost like ashes. Psalm 147:16 Thank you, Lord, for showing us your beauty, peace, and quiet in a world of confusion and chaos.
Deep winter in the Northland reveals many breathtaking scenes, and the colder it gets, the more beauty pops out. On a freezing evening in mid-January, the colors saturate blue, and the windblown snow sculpted drifts become visible. It is hard to believe that the daylight hours will be noticeably longer in just a few weeks, and the thought of Springtime begins to tease our minds. “For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven and do not return there but water the earth, making it bring forth and sprout, giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater. Isaiah 55:10 Thank you, Lord, for your creation to point to You and provision to enjoy and live in winter. hope, provision, help grace
The Bowstring Bridge, also called a Horton Bridge, spans the Amnicon River and graces Amnicon State Park's landscapes near Superior, Wisconsin. The sound of running water, chirping chickadees, and a gentle wind blowing through the treetops gives you a sense of peace that only being in nature can provide. Let the field exult, and all that is in it. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy. Psalm 96:12 Thank you, Lord, for your exquisite creations that so often point directly to You!
