Hoarfrost

Hoarfrost

temperature dips

frosty air nips

the air is crisp

one's breath a wisp

flowers wilt

for no quilt

ghostly white the grass

though it will not last

icy brittle is the grass in the lane

icy pattern on the windowpane

crunch heard when walk

breath seen when talk

hot soup tonight

will taste just right

in crock pot all day

chases the chill away

thermostat turned up

or fireplace stacked up

crocheted afghan hugged

hot chocolate in mug

old Jack Frost

left hoarfrost

late last night

everything's white

* * * * *

Pure, clean, spotless, without blemish. Completely forgiven.

We are seen as white as snow when we are forgiven.

Forgiven for every time we fall short of God's commands.

Forgiven for every offense we've made against humans.

There's absolutely nothing you can't be forgiven of

for Jesus Christ is Lord and has only a heart of love.

See yourself as the Lord see you.

Pure, clean, spotless through and through.

He giveth snow like wool;

he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.

Psalm 147:16 (KJV)

...the hoary frost of heaven...

Job 38:29 (KJV)

Though your sins be like scarlet,

they shall be as white as snow.

Isaiah 1:18
