{Word-less Wednesday} "Blanket the earth!"

"He orders the snow, 'Blanket the earth!'
   and the rain, 'Soak the whole countryside!'
No one can escape the weather—it's there.
   And no one can escape from God...

When blizzards roar out of the north 

   and freezing rain crusts the land.

It's God's breath that forms the ice, 

   it's God's breath that turns lakes and rivers solid.

And yes, it's God who fills clouds with rainwater 

   and hurls lightning from them every which way.

He puts them through their paces—first this way, then that— 

   commands them to do what he says all over the world.

Whether for discipline or grace or extravagant love, 

   he makes sure they make their mark."

Job 37:6-8
