Fort Collins Gets it's Glory Day

So perhaps you've heard recently of the little town of Fort Collins, Colorado what with a little boy tragically named Falcon and his parents wishing for media favor (which they got, by the way...way to go major media outlets...ahem.) I just want to say that Fort Collins is also known for having the most restaurants per capita. Our Old Town is the basis for Disney Land's little town. And we've been voted one of the best cities to live in year after year. AND, we obviously have people who can get a good laugh out of October 15th's sensationalized events.

For example, Sunday's front page story:

This is Beautiful

I read something absolutely beautiful in God's Word today:

For the LORD will comfort Zion; He will comfort her in her waste places, and He will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD. Joy and gladness will be found in her, thanksgiving and melodious song... Listen to Me, you who know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my instruction. Do not fear disgrace by men and do not be shattered by their taunts...And the ransomed of the LORD will return and come to Zion with singing, crowned with unending joy. Joy and gladness will overtake them and sorrow and sighing will flee. I--I am the One who comforts you. Who are you that you should fear man who dies, or a son of man who has given up like grass? ...I have put My words in your mouth, and covered you in the shadow of My and, in order to plant the heavens, to found the earth, and to say to Zion, "You are My people."

Isaiah 51: 3, 7, 11-12, 16

Yep.

Today was our first snow in Fort Collins and look! It's accumulating! This calls for fuzzy slippers, a turtle neck, and a scarf. So fun!
He says to the snow, "Fall on the earth," and to the rain shower, "Be a mighty downpour."
Job 37: 6
