^" How great is the goodness
      you have stored up for those who fear you.
   You lavish it on those who come to you for protection,
      blessing them before the watching world."  Psalm 31:19

This picture basically describes how I've been feeling the past few days, and all that rain pouring down is showers of Christ's blessings.  I am so overwhelmed with who God is and what He is doing.  I know that there have been days, and there will be days that I will need to be reminded of this time in my life, when it feels like God is showering us completely, because in the midst of storms and trials, those showers don't feel like blessings.  But today, in this time, God is loving on us, on my family.  He is showing Himself to be real, to be alive and active, just like His Word. 

 

I'm amazed how God is everywhere.   We can't go anywhere, see anything, without God being in it.  Even things that have never made me think of God before, and screaming His love, His truth, His faithfulness, His goodness!  It's undeniable, unmistakable...simply amazing.

 

Part of me wants to stay here forever, enjoy this gift of showers of blessings, but part of me knows that this is just a step to what God has, so we've got to continue, enjoying His blessings along the way, and PRAISING Him, giving HIM the glory!
