Honestly I did not see this coming today. I have no situation (currently!!) that would cause this to come out of my heart. So I must believe God has someone in mind as I write this. I was merely recording the upcoming DQK Radio Show scheduled to air in Oct when God led me to speak about pain…and how He uses it in our lives. How it seems to draw us to Him when nothing else will. I just started pondering rain. I love rain but I know rain comes in many forms, in many ways, for many reasons that only God understands. One thing I do know is that He is FOR US..not against us. He uses it all for GOOD! I pray you can see that your rain is for a purpose to one day be revealed and used to help others and to share with them how you and Jesus made it through:)

..and He leads us down the paths of righteousness for His name sake (Psalm 23)

 

Rain..by Shelly Wilson

Some rain comes heavy
And some rain comes light
Some rain falls at day time
And some rain falls at night
Some rain is quite painful
Some rain is pure joy
Some comes with a bit of thunder
Some barely makes a noise.

Some rain is expected
Some an unwanted surprise
Some rain comes with darkness
Some even as the sun shines.
Some rain leaves a rainbow
Some leaves mere demise
Some brings a calming
Some simply terrifies.

See we don’t get to choose the kind of rain we get
We don’t get to choose the tests.
Only He knows what’s good for us
Even when we think we know best.
So when rain comes in the form of pain
And you wish it wouldn’t fall
Learn to dance and praise His name in the midst of it all.

 

Love Much,
