Too much of a good thing?

I love a lot of things, but most good things can become less so in excess.  This is the case with snow.  We live in an area that sees a couple of good measureable snows a year usually.  This is the way I like it.  I love the snow, in moderation.  Tonight, the ground is covered once again with the white stuff.  I do not like this.  I have plans tomorrow.  I rarely have actual plans.  Tomorrow is one of the few days a year that I take a break from normal life and get out with my oldest gal pal.  (Not oldest in her age but in our friendship's age.)  We take about a two-hour trip to the "city" to shop and eat out.  It's a nice way to catch up with each other and escape the dullness of our everyday lives.  The snow must not stop us!  This isn't even to mention the fact that our children DO NOT need another snow day.  As it is, I have no idea how long our school year has been extended to account for lost days.  I foolishly look forward to snow days, then regret it months later when summer is ticking away, and we're still in school!  Let's all hope that this snow is diminished, and we are able to proceed with our plans.

Today is Valentine's Day.  The sermon at church this morning was about love.  I took something very important from this.  I realize that grudges are a waste of energy and time.  God does not wish for us to harbor ill feelings toward one another.  I am going to work toward repairing broken relationships.  Life is too short to live with these petty feelings eating away at us.  If you are holding onto hurt feelings, think about letting them go.  You only have healing to come your way if you do. 

This is a short blog, and it's late.  I did want to take a moment to share what I got from God's word today, though.  Maybe I'll have tales to tell from my outing tomorrow.  Be safe out there!
