Sometimes in life the "cold" presses in on the soul to an extent that you
think you will not survive it. Like these Native Americans in their deer
skin clothes and Elk or Buffalo robes, we often have to "brave" the elements
of a society that is a bit like a winter day. With our electronic
fascinations and noisy distractions, the warmth of what is possible in
relationships often is covered over by the bitter cold feelings of aloneness
or loss. Once, while lying in my warm and comfortable bed, I was anguishing
over a loss in my life while gazing out the large window at the bleak winter
gray of our yard. I was imagining this "pain" going on forever, and out of
despair asked the Lord what He wanted me to know about it. Immediately this
thought popped in my head - "Spring Will Come." "Thank You," I replied, and
I rose up for another day with the hope that more blessing was ahead.
