RainDrip, drip, drip… Those were the sounds I woke up to this morning. Enticed by the rains beauty, I stepped outside. The drops hitting my face felt so refreshing, and within just a few minutes,
I was completely soaked!
In my life lately, I have felt like I have been going through sort of a spiritual dry. I knew that I needed water, but I was just to busy to step out into the rain.
It was like I was closing myself up in the world of busyness and it was quickly sucking every ounce of God out of me.
This morning when I stepped in the rain, it hit me. It had only taken a few minutes for me to become drenched! Here I am trying to figure out why my relationship with God seemed to be dry, and it’s because for the past month or so I have not stepped into God’s presence, into His downpour! I would put off my quiet time because of my crazy schedule, and in doing that, I would miss out on the refreshing, non-tangible drink only God can offer.
I was surviving on my own “energy drinks“… quenching my thirst temporarily, but in the end leaving me even drier.
I knew this HAD to change! I could not go on any longer in this spiritual desert. It is mind blowing to think of, what seemed like forever in a land of dryness…
Could all be changed…
If I would just choose…
“Let my teaching fall like rain and my words descend like dew, like showers on new grass, like abundant rain on tender plants.” Deuteronomy 32:2
