They got it right this time. We actually had the snow the TV weather people predicted. Classes were canceled yesterday and today. It did not seem like that much snow to me. I remember walking to school as a child in more snow than we had Sunday night through yesterday, but days off are nice.

TV weather person is a job I would not want in my area of Nebraska. They depend on weather predictions from different sources and more often than not, the amount of snow we get is far less or rarely far more than predicted. We have actually had days in recent years that school was canceled due to predicted heavy snow that never came.
People have tried to predict the return of Jesus for two thousand years. Jesus gave us signs to look for but there have been numerous times in history it seemed like those signs were happening. Jesus told us about the time when he was asked in Acts 1:6-8:
Then they gathered around him and asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?”
He said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
So Jesus gave signs to look for but told us it is not for us to know the time? The two are not opposing thoughts. Jesus gave us signs to tell us to be ready, be prepared. Part of being ready is desiring to see others be prepared by coming to know Jesus. That is how the being his witnesses fits in.
So while I clean the snow off of my car, it will also be time to pray for those who are not ready yet.
Thank you for reading. God Bless.
