Have you ever really thought about this verse? I've read it before but don't know that I had really dissected it until now. So what are the spring rains like where you live? Here in Arkansas we experience the gamut of differences in our spring rains.
At times I've happened to look out the window and notice that everything is wet--the soft, pitter patter of the gently falling droplets come into and out of my life with no sound at all.
At other times, I hear the ping, ping of gently falling rain steadily making its presence known watering and feeding all within its reach.
I especially love the drumming of the steady, long term rain--the kind where I know I can reach for a good book, lay down on the sofa with my most comfy afghan, read a couple of hours and know that it will still be raining when I arise.
In this neck of the woods we also experience gale force winds that blow sheets of rain in an almost horizontal line--pounding, breaking, surging, engulfing everything in its path.
How has God come to you in the past? Can you think of times when His love paralleled the rains I mentioned above?
How do you want Him to come to you today?
Father, come to each one of us as you see fit. You know exactly just the
kind of watering we need.
