I never liked the rain until I walked through it with you
Every thunder cloud that came was one more I might not get through
On the darkest day there's always light and now I see it too
But I never liked the rain until I walked through it with you
I know this may hit some of my Oklahoma friends hard as they would appreciate rain and cooler weather SO much right now, but I'm pretty much tired of rain in Cedartown. It has drizzled/sprinkled/rained nearly every day this past week, and I am ready for some sunshine. Mostly the rain is calm and peaceful-- no thunderstorms or gusting wind. But this post is not about the weather, it's about the emotional and spiritual storms and rain showers that we encounter daily.
We've had some rain showers, some thunder claps, but not what I would consider a thunderstorm. Of course, thunderstorms are nothing once you've experienced tornadoes and hailstorms. I've shared about the beauty that can be found alongside pain, and I truly believe that I'm learning to bear the rain and thunder, although I can't say I enjoy it.
The wonderful thing about the rain is that others are walking along with you. Playing in the rain is fun, especially when you can get a little muddy, but it's no fun when you're alone. Labor Day, we played in the rain. My lifeguarding training came in handy as I was able to open the pool for the kids, and they enjoyed the rain (so did I). Don't leave someone out in the rain alone. There's beauty and enjoyment to be found when we don't run inside, but instead play and sing in the rain!
