Rain

It has been raining here for weeks. Everyone is starting to complain and wanting the sunshine and the hot summer weather to begin. I think I have really needed the moisture though as much as, or maybe even more than, the dry soil around here. I imagine the rain to be like the Holy Spirit pouring out from Heaven. The more it rains on me, the more the hardness of my heart softens, and the rain of God is able to get down deeper and deeper into the areas where it normally would just run off. I'm starting to love the rain.
