Are you just getting wet

It seems that I have been on a particular subject this week, and I apologize for that. However, I have been praying and seeking and working through some things. GOD has been good, and I realize that there are many things that I need to work on.

I am going to give today's word early in this post and, then, try to give you what's on my mind today. Today's word is a quote from Roger Miller, which says, "Some people walk in the rain. Others just get wet."

Some people, when things are not going their way, still continue walking the path and smiling all the way. Others will just continue to bog down with it all. I admit that I try to be the former but, often lately, I find myself the latter; I am just getting wet.

There are times when the rain is pouring and beating down on us that GOD is trying to show us something, trying to move us from where we are to where He wants us to be, trying to get us to give up what we have for what He has for us. Yes, sometimes, the rain is there for cleansing and renewing. Nothing washes away all the litter and trash like a good rainstorm.

Yet, there are times when the rain comes that all I can do is complain and trudge through. I don't get what GOD is trying to show me because all I am doing is getting wet. There is a huge difference from getting clean and just getting wet. I pray I get better at walking in the rain.

I am going to work on trying to just enjoy the day. It won't all happen today. It won't all happen at once. But, if I diligently try to walk when it is raining, GOD will take me higher than I've ever been. Enjoy the day! It may not all be good but it is all from GOD!

Be Blessed,
Mickey T
