Strength Returning

 Twelve inches of snow fall overnight.

We end up with over 16 inches of snow over the last 3 days,

but the driveway is cleared each day by my husband.

 

 

 

 

 

 

He was up shoveling today before I’m up, but he does wake me to say,

“You should see how how fast and hard the snow is coming down!”

This is what was done before I start to shovel.

My husband did more up by the garage then down by the street.

He left the street for me not knowing if I was going to be able to shovel, but God did! God knows I enjoy the stuff by the street.

Today, I knew I would be able to shovel which is miracle.

Running in the snow and wind has made me strong enough to believe I am able to shovel.

The running I have been doing 3 of the last 4 days in wind, snow, and cold shows me running is returning to an everyday occurrence as it was 10 years ago! God is so Very Good!

My husband has been doing all the shoveling for the last few years because I couldn’t anymore. And even this year with all the running accomplished, I had no thought of being able to shovel! So, knowing I am able to shovel 12 inches today is a miracle happening in real time!

Knowing it is warm outside I put on boots, mittens, and cover a tee-shirt with a sweatshirt. With each shovel load I pick up 12 inches of snow and throw it over to the grassy area.

The snow is a bit on the wet side and it is sticking to my hair and hat. Inside I find the back of the sweatshirt has been soaked by the wet snow.

My shoveling widens the path already done and I also make it across the bottom of the driveway where the plow adds extra snow. I cross over to the mailbox, clearing it for the mail truck to drive up to the box. Knowing it is time to go inside for water, I see our neighbor finish the driveway with their snowblower.  I have the desire to go back out and finish it for my pride  but I am thankful.

Our driveway is over 50 feet long and it is double wide. Ten years ago I was able to shovel the whole thing. I am believing it is possible again. There is a shift happening again.

Fifteen years ago when God gave me the new bones and nerves I asked Him to show me how to clean house and He did. It is time again to ask God for help stepping out into the future He has planned for me.

God Bless each of us with Wisdom and Courage to do what needs to be done wisely. I also ask God to Bless us with Strength to do more than we know.

GOD IS SO VERY GOOD.
