Rain Lord.... Reign Lord......

imgfave

This morning it rained... and the first thing that came to mind was, "Oh, no!  Not now!".  Well, recently I have been complaining of the rain - not because I don't like it (I love it), but each time it rains water seeps into the bed rooms and the living room.  I end up having to mop up a lot of water on and on and on... well, as long as the rain lasts.

But this morning the rain was a real blessing.  Although it rained, there was no leak and no mopping to be done because of it.  On the other hand, it cooled the day, so much so, when we had a freak power loss for a couple of hours, we didn't feel the loss of power much.  It still remained cool indoors.  

Thank you Lord for the rain, and for watering the earth anew with your refreshing love. 

”Open up, O heavens, and pour out your righteousness.  Let the earth open wide so salvation and righteousness can sprout up together.  I, the LORD, created them.”  (Isaiah 45:8)

  1. I love the rain....I am glad that you did not have to mop today My Sister-In-Christ.
    I love the sound of the rain and the smell.....
    I love that it waters our animals and plants and earth. I feel clean after the rain. I love water in general. I ask today for the Lord's healing water and rain. Rain down on me Lord and cleanse me. Cleanse me in this new decade of life that I am about to begin. Cleanse me so I can begin my NEXT NEW 50 years. In Jesus I pray. AMEN.
    LOve,

  3. Interesting because it's raining here today too...in the Mojave desert of Nevada. We average 4 inches per year. So, yes, I love the rain too, and am thankful. :-)
