Winter Bible Verses
Why Winter?
I don’t look forward to winter, although I do think it has its’ own beauty. Yes, all seasons have their own beauty and as I’ve grown older, I’ve learned to accept that fact that the Lord made all the seasons and has a purpose for each one. He also has a purpose for any season of life you may be going through. He can help us weather any season, so if your winter is hard right now, sit at the feet of Jesus, and behold Him. He can:
•Show you His mighty power
•Show you His faithfulness
•Give you something to look forward to – SPRING!
•Remind you that His Word will never return void
•Remind you of His goodness and His Salvation – we can be washed white as snow
•Remind you to watch and wait, for the Ancient of Days will soon be returning and we will meet around His throne. Praise God!

Morning and Evening
by Charles Spurgeon
“You have made summer and winter.” Psalm 74:17
My soul begin this wintry month with your God. The cold snows and the piercing winds all remind you, that He keeps His covenant with day and night, and tend to assure you that He will also keep that glorious covenant which He has made with you in the person of Christ Jesus. He who is true to His Word in the revolutions of the seasons of this poor sin-polluted world—will not prove unfaithful in His dealings with His own well-beloved Son.
Winter in the soul is by no means a comfortable season, and if it be upon you just now, it will be very painful to you—but there is this comfort, namely—that the Lord makes it. He sends the sharp blasts of adversity to nip the buds of expectation. He scatters the hoarfrost like ashes over the once verdant meadows of our joy. He casts forth His ice like morsels freezing the streams of our delight. He does it all, He is the great Winter King, and rules in the realms of frost—and therefore you cannot murmur.
Losses, crosses, heaviness, sickness, poverty, and a thousand other troubles—are of the Lord’s sending, and come to us with wise design. Frosts kill noxious insects, and put a bound to raging diseases. Winter in the soul breaks up the clods, and sweetens the soul. O that such good results would always follow our winters of affliction! How we prize the fire just now! how pleasant is its cheerful glow! Let us in the same manner prize our Lord, who is the constant source of warmth and comfort in every time of trouble. Let us draw near to Him, and in Him find joy and peace in believing. Let us wrap ourselves in the warm garments of His promises, and go forth to labors which befit the season, for it is bad to be as the sluggard who will not plough by reason of the cold; for he shall beg in summer and have nothing!
