Here in Edmonton, the nights can be snowy. Every media outlet might be shouting blizzard warnings. You would think that everyone would be at home, but the devoted university students who have registered in a hope class show up at 5:00 PM. Reflecting on hope, one of them observes that a single snowflake isn’t much, but when they band together, they have a huge impact.
Our journey home is slow and cold, made tedious by the coming together of a thousand zillion snowflakes. Such a challenge, such a burden to overcome all of this! And then, as we round the corner to find that our driveway and sidewalks are clear, we see how one determined person working alone, joined by another when the job is well under way, can change the position of a very large group.
