Psalms 147:16
He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.
147:16. Here follow instances of the power of God upon the elements.
He giveth snow like wool. Snow falls softly, covers universally, and clothes warmly, like fleecy wool. The most evident resemblance lies in the fleecy whiteness, but many other likenesses are to be seen by the observant eye. It is wise to see God in winter and in distress as well as in summer and prosperity.
He scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes. Let us praise the Lord who condescends to wing each flake of snow and scatter each particle of rime. Ours is no absent or inactive deity: he works all things, and is everywhere at home.
