SNOW and Rain, Bless the Lord1

Much of our nation has been dealing with snow and ice and difficulties during this record winter of 2014!  Hmmmm.  I don't recalling praying the words of the psalmist very much these days:  "Snow and rain, ice . . . bless the Lord!"   I have been preoccupied in using my "free days" to catch up on work or to get ahead with my many responsibilities.   The siesta of those I met in Italy a few years ago, is not part of my American way of life.   But I forget to bring the sacred into my mundane moments.   I forget to bless the Lord for what each day brings.    I need to remember to make this divine connection, for this is what my life is about.
