From Jeremiah 14:20-21: “We acknowledge our wickedness, O Lord, the iniquity of our ancestors, for we have sinned against You. Do not spurn us, for Your name’s sake; do not dishonor Your glorious throne; remember and do not break Your covenant with us.”

Famine in spirit
Eroding landscape
Darkest days ahead
Hopelessness takes shape
False prophets at work
Preaching hollow words
Continuous gloom
Gospel never heard
Sin ravages lives
Seeking true healing
Spirit never waits
Always revealing
Christ’s redemption saves
Spurning evil ways
Ember of faith grows
Resurrection’s blaze
Heavens open up
Showering God’s love
Grace enriches trust
Hope shines from above

From Jeremiah 14:22: “Can any idols of the nations bring rain, or can the heavens give showers? Is it not You, O Lord our God? We set our hope on You, for it is You who do all this.”
Yes, the heavens certainly opened up here today!

So I heard Jan. My nine-month old grandson in Bozeman experienced his first snowfall up close and in person. Southwestern Montana is famous for her October surprises of snow.
