Letter Dated Saturday, December 13th

Dear God of Ice and Snow,

All of creation sings your glory, and I walk a bleak land of winter night. It tells me you are cold, remote, and silent. I could not survive long out here.

In the warm, I had doubts and complaints, and when I felt the cold knocking on my skin, they increased. But into my walk, my whining froze to death and I had marvelous thoughts.

I wonder when I get home, really home, if there will be snowy places with night, where I can look at you far away and vast, and learn from the cold.

You Servant,
BJ
