Pictured is a lighthouse in the harbor of the island of Nantucket Nantucket . I don’t know about you, but if the groundhog sees his shadow on Thursday, I’m ok with that, because I think I can take six more weeks of the kind of winter we’ve been having! It's days like today that make it easy to agree with the Psalmist when he writes; “This is the day that the Lord hath made, I will rejoice and be glad in it.” Of course, not everyone in the world had a good day today. The important thing to remember is that regardless of the weather, regardless of our circumstances, the love of God and God’s Son is always shining upon us. So our joy is not dependent upon our circumstances or the temperature outside, for we have the promise of God’s presence, grace and strength each and every day. That’s something to rejoice and be glad about, and if it happens to be 65 degrees in the middle of winter, that's just a nice bonus!
