Ever had ‘one of those days’ when one thing after another doesn’t go as planned? Your alarm clock doesn't go off, so you oversleep. You spill coffee on your clothes at breakfast and have to change. Your car has a flat tire so you’re late for work …
But what if you hadn’t been late?
Ever wonder if it was for your protection? If all those things hadn’t ‘gone wrong’ in the morning, you would have been running ‘on time’ … and later you hear on the news that a fatal car crash happened at the exact spot you would’ve been. Hmmm …
You plan a morning at the park or zoo with the kids … a day in the sunshine, playing and running off all that energy … and in a matter of minutes it clouds up and begins to rain. Now what?
God is always at work. It is difficult for us to trust in the things we can’t see … the spiritual things going on all around us. His ways are higher than our ways. But have faith that the same God Who brings the sunshine is the same God Who brings the rain; the same God Who loves you and knows your name! Verses about God knows your name
Even when blue skies turn gray, and sunshine turns to rain, trust God!
Is there anybody's sunshine
Been turned to rain?
Is there anybody's blue sky
Been turned to gray?
Is there anybody's good time
Turned out real bad?
Is there anyone's happiness
Turned out sad?
And I know I can't trust in the things that I see
All I know, He's at work and He's working on me.
Let it rain, let it pour. Lord I need you more and more!
Isaiah 45:8 - “Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the LORD have created it.”
Not my will but yours, Lord. Let it rain!
