I love the rain


A few weeks ago our daughter Bethany (with tears in her eyes) handed me an incredible book and said "take some time Mum and read this"  It is a book constructed by Rob Bell called "Drops like stars" and it deals with human suffering, pain and loss...  I sat and read it from cover to cover and found it quite breathtaking.  He states that bad news and tragedy eradicate the need for the superficial and the unnecessary.  We so need to remind ourselves of that which is important.  

As we come to the end of a decade I have an excitement as we go into the new one. It feels as though these last 10 years have contained great tragedy... but also a dryness in both the natural and the spiritual.  I am personally praying for a great outpouring of the Holy Spirit... (for the times most likely wont get easier but in His strength and revelation the light will shine brighter.)  

As I sit here writing, the rain is pouring down outside and I feel that it is very significant... It sounds so wonderful... I feel that it is a sign from heaven for what is to come...
