An ice storm came through recently. Though some areas were affected by power outages, our apartment was free of harm. Sheila (my wife) and I were marveling at the beauty of the ice coated trees and bushes. As I walked home from the office yesterday, I went along a path lined with trees like that. It was very much like an entrance to a grand cathedral. At moments like that, I cannot help but be in awe ... and in reflection anticipate the day when along the street lined with the tree of life, bearing 12 crops of fruit, we will walk, marvelling for all eternity at the glory of our King.
