singin' in the rain!

Ahhhh, Pennsylvania weather! My Dad would’ve said “This is great weather if you’re a duck!”. When we were kids we used to put on swim suits, run outside in the rain and wash our hair under the rain spout with Prell! I've since heard that you can set a perm with Prell shampoo - that's pretty scary!
Anyway, we've had so many rainy days in a row lately and it's been so dreary – the one way I could think of to find joy in the weather was to see what God’s Word said about rain. I found Isaiah 45:8…

"You heavens above, rain down righteousness; let the clouds shower it down. Let the earth open wide, let salvation spring up, let righteousness grow with it; I, the LORD, have created it."

If it’s God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS showering down on my life then let it pour. In fact – I’d like to just sit still – face up – mouth open – in that kind of rain (and maybe in the real, wet stuff too – but on a warmer day!)

Thank you, Lord, for the sunshine today – it’s so beautiful out there! Thanks, too, that we don’t have to wait for a rainy day to let You rain down Your RIGHTEOUSNESS! Would you SPRING UP SALVATION in the lives and families I cross paths with and give me more of those intersections in my life!
