Wonders of Creation: Snowflakes

Snowflakes begin as a speck of dust that become surrounded by droplets of water that freeze as the air blows on them.  In the course of falling through the atmosphere they change shape, with no two being alike.

For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:” –Colossians 1:16

What a marvelous designer God is!  Our amazing God pays close attention to all that is created. Not only individual snowflakes, but also every human being. Consider meditating on the truths found in Psalm 139 about YOU. You are fearfully and wonderfully made! (Psalm 139:14.)
