It was such a blessing to hear the thunder and lightening last night as I slept. Water is a precious commodity up here in our community. We have not seen enough rain to keep plants green or to keep the dust down. This unexpected weather is so wonderful and I owe all the Glory to our Lord and Savior....Jesus.
I remember as a kid growing up in San Antonio, Texas, that it was not unusual for a random thunder shower to happen in the middle of the day. As a matter a fact, my sister and I use to love singing the song that told the rain to go away.....Remember that song...."Rain rain go away come back some other day." It just seem like it took the rain forever to go away. Now I look outside and I tell myself that I wish the rain would stay all day, but I am gracious for what we did get.
The smell outside is unbelievable. Water brings life back into everything. The trees, the birds, the dirt, and the dogs all have a happy perk in their look. So something as simple as water can revive almost anything in this world. As humans, I believe that our body is made up of at least 70% of water. We can live without nourishment, but I am pretty sure we cannot live without water! God is amazing.
Genesis 2:5
Now no shrub of the field was yet in the earth, and no plant of the field had yet sprouted, for the Lord God had not sent rain upon the earth, and there was no man to cultivate the ground.
