Our two little ones have been going a bit stir crazy with all the rain we have been blessed with recently. Who am I kidding? So have I. We have had a really rainy stretch where getting outside for anything is almost impossible. We try to play under the carport and do get out when we can but it has been difficult because we like playing outside.
It's hard to understand the importance of rain when you are younger. Especially, when all you see the rain doing is keeping you from enjoying the things you really desire. Yet, we know rain must fall. It is a blessing to receive it and there are many places that would pay most anything to have some of what we have had.
Today's verse is Leviticus 26:4, NIV, which reads, "I will send you rain in its season, and the ground will yield its crops and the trees their fruit."
It is necessary for the rain to fall in order for us to have the opportunity to grow the crops and the produce that we need. Without rain, without water, there is no growth. Whenever they search another planet, the first thing they look for is water. Why? Because you cannot have life without water, it is essential to life.
Yes, we have had an abundance of rain lately, which has caused the little ones (and me) to wonder if we will ever get the chance to play outside. What I need to do, though, is see the rain for what it really is. The rain is GOD pouring His blessings upon us in order to produce a good harvest.
Be Blessed,
