I can’t believe it’s snowing in April Why are we always so surprised when it snows in April? It’s Wisconsin. We experience days when it’s warm and sunny— almost picture perfect. And then comes the bitter cold, windy, snowy weather. It happens every year. And yet, we say, “I can’t believe that it’s so warm in March! But now I need a winter coat!

Your sins are always at dschultz@llhs.org forgiven. Your soul is always loved. On good days and bad, when you feel it and when you don’t.

God will always love and forgive us. His love is better and more predictable than the weather! ❧DS
