Cloud: 
A busy day filled with appointments and lots and lots of driving back and forth.

Silver Lining: 
God filled it up with little bits of joy and surprises, and perfect answers to prayers, and time alone to listen to God’s Word. Then, while finally arriving home, He painted me a breathtaking Merry Christmas scarlet sky! Afterwards, He topped it off with a delicious dinner date with my favorite teenaged twin boys; then some fun Christmas shopping with them for presents afterwards, which lasted till midnight!

“He who forms the mountains, who creates the wind, and who reveals his thoughts to mankind, who turns dawn to darkness, and treads on the heights of the earth– the LORD God Almighty is his name.”

(Amos 4:13 New International Version)

Oh what a gift to come home to Christmas on country roads among majestic Blue Ridge Mountains!
