One of the many phrases I heard growing up was…
Red sky at night, shepherds delight
Red sky in morning, shepherds warning*
It always meant to me that based on when the sky was red, that it gave an indication of what could be coming next related to the weather.
Apparently this last winter was the wettest on record where we live in 46 years. It had noticeably negatively affected the my feelings about life along with many others in the city we live.
Recently walking towards our local park I noticed the sky changing colour. The hue grew more and more red as I approached a well none landmark and I was reminded of those famous words above.
My hope for you and me navigating whatever long, cold, maybe damp season that we have faced, that it is now finally turning into something new.
May the red sky give you hope.
May it remind you that while some seasons may feel far too long, that they can not last forever.
Hang onto to hope my friend.
Something to think about…
*Matthew 16:2-3
