The Meaning of Snowflake

This is a beautiful poem that my sister-in-law received on the front of one of her Christmas cards.  She gave it to me knowing how much I love snowflakes. ;0)  I think I will frame the beautiful card and put it in the baby room. =)

The Meaning of Snowflake

Every new snowflake comes to the earth

as a picture of our Saviour's birth,

because they are sent from up above

and remind us of God's care and love.

Each one is so intricate and small

because Christ sees the details of us all,

and just as two are never the same

the Lord knows and calls us each by name.

 

Snowflakes gently cover the world in white

and hide what's unlovely from our sight,

showing us how He covers our sin

and gives us His grace when we come to Him.

So may every snowflake bring Christ to mind

and in ever bit of white may you find

a reason to celebrate anew

and a reminder of His love for you.
