Rain


I love everything about rain. I even love reading about rain. There is hardly ever a time when I don’t love it when it rains. I mean, besides raining out a sporting event, or ruining a wedding, or making a funeral that much worse, I never have a problem with rain.  I was planning on writing this blog on “The Boys Next Door” after I read it, but as I was coming back from tennis, it started pouring. Which reminded me of how beautiful rain is, and how we have been discussing nature literature. Rain is one of those rare things that can be beautiful, refreshing, annoying, scary, peaceful, etc, at any given time. There is nothing I love falling asleep to more than the sound and smell of rain, while on the other hand, rain can also be disastrous. Also, something about thunderstorms causes me to remember what an incredible God we have. There is something amazing about seeing the lighting and hearing the thunder and knowing our God created all of it just by saying the word that just leaves me speechless. That is just one more reason why I love the rain, it is just another reminder of the power of our creator. Read this verse and just visualize the power God displays in this verse. In Ezekiel 13 it says;
“Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even rend it with a stormy wind in my fury; and there shall be an overflowing shower in mine anger, and great hailstones in my fury to consume it. So will I break down the wall that ye have daubed with untempered morter, and bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be discovered, and it shall fall, and ye shall be consumed in the midst thereof: and ye shall know that I am the LORD. Thus will I accomplish my wrath upon the wall, and upon them that have daubed it with untempered morter, and will say unto you, The wall is no more, neither they that daubed it;”

Okay, now that I have gone on and on about my opinion on rain, I should probably go read the rest of “The Boys Next Door”. Hopefully it is not about what the title sounds like haha.

  1. I love how you can tell how truly excited you are about the rain. You go from one good thing about the rain to the next, and then just end up amazed at God.

    Cool beans, man. =~)
