Rain will come

I'm listening to the rain and watching it fall effortlessly to the ground outside my window when this small thought floats by...which is...... there is something about water that has a forgiving quality about it. I have always found water to be cleansing, healing, rejuvenating, and forgiving. When you are dirty you wash with water. When you are thirsty you drink and rejuvenate with water. There is something about water that has that healing aspect which says, 'here take this, start over and become new.' Now, I know some of you will not understand this, but a new life in Christ is the same. The God who opens the skies and pours out rain is the same God who heals. This love is still and will always be unfathomable and incomprehensible to me but God is in the healing business. We are His people and like the rain we can start over no matter how twisted the past may be. Letting God heal you is an active choice that only comes from deciding to leave the drought your in...realizing that all the pain and time spent was just a season. Rain will come, but will you let it?
