January 26 - Snow Bridge A blanket of freshly fallen snow covers the landscape around the Lester River Bridge in Duluth. The joy of winter is the quiet peacefulness surrounding you on a walk up a frozen river. The occasional chirp of a chickadee or squawk of a raven breaks the silence, only to return to peaceful quiet. You keep him in perfect peace, whose mind stays on you because he trusts you. Isaiah 26:3 The only peace and safety in this world is hope and faith in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
January 27 - Wolf Moon January's full moon is named after the howling of wolves in midwinter. Other names for this month's full moon include the old and ice moon. “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!” Luke 2:14 Thank you, Lord, for your care for us by providing resources to live here and enjoy the cold of winter and the warmth of summer.
January 28 - Cold Glow The warm colors of a winter sunrise cast a glow over sea smoke rising from Lake Superior on this -35 below-zero morning. Sea smoke forms when frigid Canadian air moves over the relatively warm water surface. Warm air is less dense than cold air, so the sea smoke rises similarly to smoke. This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24 Today is a great day to be alive!4 Today is a great day to be alive!
