Today was a drencher. Is that even a word? outside my church office window it appeared to dump buckets and bathtubs full for about 20 minutes. One funny is that it drops especially hard outside my window (due to the roofline gutters) whereas the other office windows appear to have a nice gentle rain. I sometimes feel like I am in the Truman Show. Another good movie to watch if you have the time and want to stretch your mind a bit.
The fact is life happens to us and we make life happen. Both can exist at the same time. Sometimes we are in the storm and sometimes we are held safe from the storm and sometimes we are the storm. All three can also exist at the same time.
It’s rainy season now….almost daily…and so we sing….raindrops are falling on my head…that keeps the joy going.
Who needs an umbrella? That is so not the Seattle vibe.
I picked Norah up from practice and she was soaked! She excitedly said, “that was so awesome – we almost got struck by lightening.” Yikes I say.
Evening meetings with school teachers for conferences and confirmation and senior high church activities – our cups run over. So much good in the pouring rain. Let’s go jump in some puddles.
