New Life and Resurrection Has Come...Is Coming...When the snow completely covers the ground, I am reminded of all the stuff I never picked up before it came. I find myself relieved that the snow covers it over.Death also comes like a blanket of snow making invisible the one who was with us. It covers our lives like a big cloud. The sun doesn’t seem to want to shine in our souls. Our souls seem to be covered over by a blanket of the snow of death. 
And so we grieve for a time. It is unknown as to how long we
will be under our blanket of grief. But we can know that we are
not there alone. And at the right time, the healer of our souls
will bring out the sun to dry up the clouds. New life will come from this dark place. This we can know for sure...that out of our place of grief, pain and death that resurrection for our souls is on it’s way. We will be renewed. Rest in this knowledge. When you feel discouraged about the painful place you find yourself in...remind yourself that this pain will transform and heal if you allow yourself to be with it.
