Let it Rain

I love the rain.  Especially in the dark.  The sound is soft as the rain dances off the windows and slides down the leaves to splash in the newly formed puddles.  The world seems to quiet for a while when it rains.  I like that.  I enjoy that.  I need that.

In the early morning hours, or the very late hours, the rain is almost like a lullaby.  And if there is even just a touch of moon in the sky, it becomes a palette for the clouds and wind to work their artistry.  It's a different masterpiece every time.  Nobody can create like He does. :)

Tonight it's very dark, and the rain is falling so softly... You can't hear it, but it leaves a light mist on your skin.  And it smells so fresh.  The car sounds are gone, no barking, or voices.  Just the quiet, with a beautiful night sky.  It's almost as if I'm in the wilderness, though in the middle of this busy city  -  miles from everywhere and nowhere... alone but not really.   He brought me out to experience this, to add it to my memory bank of good, and nice, and right.

Tonight I am just thankful that I'm here to enjoy the beauty and peace in this moment.  I need to savor this, to remember this, and to learn to see it in all things.

Blessings to you always...
