MAY 1 - Rain Showers

Hosea 6:3, Zechariah 9:17—10:1, Ezekiel 34:25–29, Isaiah 45:8, Matthew 7:27

Rain can often discourage us from going outdoors in the spring. Cold wet clothing is not an appealing prospect. Yet, getting out in the wet weather is good for us. It is good for us to engage discomfort, if for no other reason than to remind us that life is not about ease and comfort. Little boys and girls are not put off by a little rain, they delight to jump in puddles with no thought to how soaked they might get. So, get out in the rain this week and ponder all that God has to teach us through these raindrops falling from the sky.
