With apologies to the composer of a popular old song “There’s No Business Like Show Business,” we could hum, “there’s no business like snow business!” To those of us who have lived in snow country like Minnesota, Wisconsin, South Dakota and others, snow is only a minor inconvenience until it really is a big storm. Two inches can cripple a southern city but for rugged northerners, we nearly need a foot before we are really slowed down or kept indoors. At least, that is the way our bragging suggests. When Sue and I lived in Kalamazoo, Michigan, a massive storm buried the whole metropolis. Even with great city snow equipment, the whole city was shut down. Church was cancelled everywhere. Nothing could move out of the neighborhoods. When we finally shoveled our way past our door and helped the neighbors shovel out, we invited several of our neighbors to come to our house for a simple Sunday worship service. The result was among the warmest and most lovely experiences of our life in Kalamazoo. How often the inconvenient, and at times even the tragic, becomes the opportunity for God to show us His blessing, no matter what the circumstance!
