Daily Huddle - Sun  Aug 16, 2020 When It Rains

Love you all, praying for you,
 
Have you ever been rained out?  Rainy days can be a little depressing, like the little league rained out game... all those sad little faces in a line with their gloves – completely dejected.  Sometimes rainy days come in life.  They can be disappointing, they can change your plans, some people even begin to question if God is still there, or still loves them.  Like questioning if the sun is still there – on a rainy day.  Oh it’s still there – shining as brightly as ever – tomorrow morning you will see, but it just feels like that right now.  Is it raining in your life today?  As with anything in life – we are always faced with a choice.  We choose what we look at and focus on.  We even choose how we think, and how we respond.  The game is cancelled, there’s no changing that…  but what we do, we can absolutely change.  Sometimes God allows rain – to change our plans.  And you can know for sure, even in the rain, God is good – He has good for you.  Sometimes it’s helpful just to stop and consider, sometimes God has another thing for you to do, instead of this thing that you were going to do.  But in my PiVAT before dinner, I was going to cut the grass today!  or play outside today.  First, God isn’t obligated to tell you every last thing that’s going to happen today.  It doesn’t mean you didn’t hear Him, and those times that you may not have heard perfectly or completely, He is still good!  This is a journey!  You’re learning to tune your ear to hear His voice, and in this moment – the Holy Spirit will tell you what your Father in Heaven wants you to do.  Sometimes if the game is cancelled – you get to go to Dairy Queen!  Not as good, but not bad...  Sometimes a downpour brings the perfect opportunity for a mudslide!  Now that's fun!  One of the all time move classics – Singing In The Rain – reminded us of the power of a different perspective.  Rain isn’t always bad.  Rain-outs are the perfect opportunity to check in with God – and get His new instructions.  Sometimes its just fun to play in the rain.  And even when rain isn’t fun, it still helps things grow - including you.   How do you view rain – as a loss or a gain?  God said rain is a part of His blessing, the former and latter rains that He gives.  His presence and His Spirit fall like rain.  Praying that you would always seek God in the rain –  He's got something for you.  Praying you'll spend time with Him...  Praying that you will always know how much He cares for you, that rain would always help you grow – and that you would be OK with the rainy days that come – knowing the sun is still shining, and God’s good will always find you.  Praying that you would take the opportunity to dance in the rain, to trust through the rain, and to give thanks to your Heavenly Father – even in the rain.  That you would know how much He loves you – how He’s growing you, and leading you.  That when it rains – you would always be reminded of how faithful He is, that you would always praise - in the rain.
 
Love you all,
dad
