winter road repair

Sometimes winters feel far too long and far too cold, but what a joy when spring is finally in the air. Give us a couple of sunny days and warmer temperatures and we already start to feel better. A sure sign of spring for me are the terrible road conditions… the winter thaw plays havoc with the roads and potholes seem to multiply by the hour; some are so big they can swallow up a small import (some GM folk might say that’s a good thing… lol). Then there are the road heaves; dips that form in the pavement that cause a roller-coaster effect… if you’re going fast enough you can actually get airborne! When the weather turns nice we feel that since the snow and ice are gone we can drive at full speed again, but the effects of the cold winter still linger. Driving at full speed will damage your car; ever hit a deep pothole at 80kph? not good. The roads need to be repaired by the municipal road crews (hence the saying Canada has two seasons… winter and construction). Sometimes life is like that too, we survive the cold winters and storms that come up but then as circumstances change and we start to feel the warm sunshine again, we think all is well. However, sometimes there are some potholes left and sometimes there is deeper damage under the surface that has to be repaired before we can fully appreciate the warm spring days again. At Hope Fellowship we will be offering 4 healing services to deal with emotional, spiritual, financial and physical needs, and through prayer try and repair some damaged roads. e-mail me if you want more info. peace, m
