I hear the rain as it hits my windowpane and think, wow... God is amazing. I just simply adore Him and all His goodness. It's quite late and though I should be asleep, I just felt compelled to write.
The sound of water falling from the sky has to be one of my favorite things to hear and to know that the Lord, the One who created the world, made something like rain that is so soothing to my soul. Such a small thing.
I think it's safe to say that everyone likes a little rain. To venture and say that everyone likes a lot of it might be a stretch. This makes me ponder my spiritual life and if I'm just plip plopping around in life without any real purpose or intention of watering those around me.
Yes, rain can be a small thing, but with a little help from a strong wind, it can definitely go places. That's how I want my life to be. Though I may be a small droplet in the world, I know that I have a God who is more than big enough to help me make a huge impact in the lives of those around me, for the better.
Storms can be scary sometimes, but how else are things going to get stirred up, shaken, wiped clean? When it's all over and the rain starts to slow down to a steady trickle, we can walk out and see a bit of sunshine start to creep in and be completely content with the plip plop of the raindrops, knowing that it gave us something we needed. Water to bring life. Just the same, Christ has done for us. He brought us life, real life giving water and on occasion has to stir things up a bit, but for our own good. To make an impact on us so that we in turn can make an impact on others.
Night~
