“…being eager to keep
the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. Ephesians 4:3”
Somewhere in late
November or early December the first snowflakes of the season fell upon the
slopes of the Cascades. Over the winter, flake upon flake pile up, eventually
carpeting the bare ground with several inches of white powder. Barring an
unusual thaw, the first flake that touched ground will stay frozen, connected
in crystal formation to all the subsequent bits of snow. Each snowflake can
range from less than a millimeter in diameter to nearly two or three inches.
Even the largest, by itself, would produce little of value.
