JONATHAN
Good morning! I’m Jonathan Crabtree, Pastor for Student Ministry at Central United Methodist Church in downtown Meridian. We’re pretty much in the middle of winter. We’ve had our days of cold, frost, and even chances of wintry precipitation, and we may all be anticipating the arrival of spring. Well, don’t move to anticipate it so much that you miss the beauty around you now. This is actually a good time to go for a hike and not worry about bugs, snakes, and creatures at Bonita Park. It’s also a good time to enjoy nature without the heat and humidity, too.
Mississippi has some wonderful state parks to enjoy, and I’ve found this is one of the best times to get out there and enjoy the hiking and exploring of them. I remember this time last year, while living in Kentucky, that we endured 18 inches of snow. Eighteen inches! That’s a lot if you ask me. We couldn’t go anywhere, and we had to stay indoors for almost a week. You can imagine our nerves after that week. But, it was a good time for our family to set goals for the year, plan meals, do house chores, and just be together. We even listened to some Christmas music!
Don’t miss out on the beauty of winter. It’s a season, too, and it deserves honor.
