Raindrops

Soon summer is coming to an end but what a wonderful season it has been for me. I love the simple things in life and I have enjoyed my garden of flowers and the birds so sweetly singing.

It was my first time planting vegetables, some flourished and some didn’t. But overall it was most rewarding and an inspirational season in many ways. When I think back I remember one day in particular, it was so hot and as I walked over to the bird feeder to add some seed, a light shower of rain touched my face. I welcomed the cool refreshing and my heart and mind was enlightened and inspired to write these words…

As the soft showers of summer refresh me, so does God’s raindrops of Grace refresh my soul. Oh how amazing, beyond all comprehension. I’m lifted high above all my fears and failures. His grace erases all my tears and as I awaken to a new sunrise, Joy Overflows my heart, soul and mind, I can hardly contain it. I’m strengthened within and without, I give Him all praise!

God’s grace is amazing and when He showers us with raindrops of grace, it is refreshing, strengthening and we are able to carry on, even though we live in troublesome times around us. The world can certainly be a frightening place and everywhere you look there is disaster, tragedy and nothing but bad news. But the good news is we have hope because we know God is our refuge and strength and we are safe and sheltered by Him. No matter what comes our way He is with us and will never leave us and better yet, He has prepared for us a place with Him for all eternity. What an exciting thought to dwell on instead of being fearful of all that is going on. So let’s keep our eyes on Jesus and our minds fixed on Him. Let His amazing grace refresh us and carry us through to the end. I believe the simplest things in life can have the greatest impact on our well being, so indulge and enjoy, all God has created!
