I love a rainy day. I even love it when I have the top down on my Jeep.
Rainy days seem to calm me down. They seem to make me feel better about life. They remind me God is near. I love the sound of rain.
I love the faithfulness of God. It is present on a rainy day. He uses a day like today to tell me that He is in control and that help is coming at just the right time. He sends help!
I'm up close and personal with God these days. He is near me and I know it. I spent more time in John 9 today. What a story!!!!! Jesus heals a man born blind. The man had never seen anything until he met Jesus. Jesus met his needs even though it was sure to cause a fight with the religious idiots of His day. I love the way Jesus handled them. So cool. So wise. He is truly transcendent.
Jesus was rain to that man who had never seen. He brought this man rain in more ways than one. I wish I could have been there the first time the blind man got to see rain like I'm seeing today. And what about lightning??? That was a riot I'm sure.
I love you Jesus. Thanks for being there ... for sending rain ... for sending dry times ... thanks for giving us sight.

i totally get your fondness of a rainy day. living down closer to galveston, i get a lot more of those than i did in ft. worth
when the man in John 9 received his sight do you think it was as bad for him as it is for us when we walk out of the movie theater and try to find our car in the bright sunlight? or when your mom would turn the light on in your bedroom in the morning after a dark night of sleep?
good question ... i would love to have been there to see for myself ... it had to be an awesome day ... i am amazed at how the religious leaders acted though. i pray we never act that way when jesus does something cool.
