Blame it on the Rain
So I am convinced that the Lord uses the Rain for more that just keeping things on the earth healthy and green and keep the rivers and lakes full <>. To some the rain is dreary. It brings about much saddness and solomness for some that reminds them of all that is unsteady and not "right" in their lives. It is said to be great weather for sleeping, which people want to do in order to dream; to help them live out their fantasies and the deepest longings of their souls, all in their minds of course. Most people hate weather like we have been experiencing here; they feel that it makes everything thats bad in their lives worse, and seems to put everyone in a mood.For myself I find the Rain Refreshing. It's a reminder to me that the Lord is near and very real in our everyday life. The fact that we would base our feelings on such wavering things as the weather, proves that feelings are not concrete and are inconsitent and always changing. Some people think that the rain has a conotation of tears or saddness from God; on the contrary, I think of a rain shower as God's way of "showering us with his Love" and "drenching us with His righteousness". Ok, maybe thats a little cheesy, but I really do feel close to God when I see the wonders of His creation, including a very cold and windy rainstorm. It reminds me that not everyday is birds chirpping and sunshining......clouds and rain will come.....many times they will stay for a few days.....but we know that the Sun will shine again very soon. The Rain should give us Hope and should strengthen our faith in the Lord that He will bring sunny skies to us again.
