Let it Snow
While I understand a few of my consistent readers don't appreciate how I feel about snow due to their usual winters, I'm going to write about the weather anyway. So there!
I'm a big fan of blizzards. I'm not going to lie, I really like it when I wake up and there is 8 inches of pure powder sitting on my windshield. I love going into an empty parking lot and running a donut. I'm an even bigger fan of building snowmen. The core of the matter is that I love it when snow just floats nonstop to the ground.
That being said, this winter has stunk so far. I mean, I know it's cold and it snowed a little bit a few days ago, but come on! Can I get a real winter day, please? I'm looking outside at a green lawn and an iced-over parking lot. That's a teaser. It's neither Fall nor Winter. It's Falter, and it's terrible. You see, if it's going to snow, I want it to SNOW! And if it's not going to snow, I want it be 70 and sunny. I'm tired of this 'tweener stuff. It frustrates me.
Looking at my feelings on the weather, I can see how I frustrate God from time to time. Revelation 3:16 pretty clearly explains how God views me as a 'tweener,' riding the fence in between hot and cold. Even when I feel on fire in 99% of my life, he still considers me "lukewarm," or Falter. It took me such a long time to realize that God, like me with weather, wants all or nothing. He's not interested in anything in the middle. I guess it's time to sell out then. And if the weather ever cooperates and a blizzard hits, my fire's gonna be so hot, I can melt the snow off the windshield.
Get off the fence,
Bobby

I love the analogy... I think you're going to have about 8 inches to make you happy tomorrow :)
Bobby I really like this post.... i've never thought of it before but it's true... oh and another thing... i completly agree with the whole wanting a real winter for once... I had just made a comment to my roommate about how i want it to be a real winter for once... yeah so i don't know if those thoughts made sense but they made sense in my head. Hope you have a great week.... probably won't see you until after christmas break!
Nice face in the media clip during the College Awards Show tonight.
