I LOVE the RAIN!

Everyday the sunrises beautifully!

Each new day I go about my life familiar

with what I know,

my world is reliable.

I expect the sun to rise, and for it to set.

Today is today,

tomorrow is another day,

rinse and repeat.

Now imagine with me,

beautiful sunshine filled days,

not just for one day,

but all day,

everyday,

every week,

every month,

every year!

{Sounds perfect right!}

So now, I (we are imagining together so you too)

have come to rely on the sun

consistently

to shine.

It is what we know~

our weather is predictable.

According to our

perspective

sunny days are great!

Dwell on that for a minute....

did you catch that

there has NEVER been

a rain forming cloud in the sky!

Its SUNNY all day, every day!

In this perspective, life is good

I am happy,

I do what I want.

I enjoy the beautiful weather

daily

without thought,

without consequence.

I am comfortable.

Then, SUDDENLY,

the Creator of the Earth

says

RAIN

is coming.

He wants me,(you, us)

to prepare for

the

RAIN.

RAIN????

What does RAIN look like?

What does it feel like?

What value does it have to my life?

I LOVE the SUN!

I mean, will I like the rain?

I don't know RAIN!

I only know the sun!

I am comfortable with the sun.

I don't really want things to change.

However,

I know the Creator,

I trust Him~

if he says it must come,

I will prepare for the rain

hmmm I may just

love the rain~

So I tell others,

the Creator says

its going to rain!!

The Creator says

its gonna

make all things new~

BUT No one believes me-

they have never heard of

the rain,

they laugh,

they feel sorry for me

they think I have gone

mad---

Sunny days come and go,

there is no rain in sight

but it doesn't stop me....

I am waiting for the RAIN!!

It's about to RAIN!!

Let it RAIN!!

The best thing one can do when it's raining is to let it rain.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
