The Mulberry Rain

The storm that blew through late this afternoon let itself be known. The lightning flashed, the thunder rumbled, the wind howled, and the rain fell. And for a few moments it might have even felt a bit dangerous knowing that we didn't have any control over it.

But as nature had its way outside of my window I couldn't help but reflect on the storms of our lives. Like today they blow in sometimes without any warning. And they sometimes can reveal just how fragile our existence is. They burst into our busy worlds regardless of our planned schedules. The ground shakes, the whirlwind of emotions begins, and what follows eventually subsides into a time of cleansing... and we're thankful.

And so to, today's mulberry colored rain was in time replaced by a twilight glow that featured a peaceful rainbow. Isn't that just like God.

Pray on,
Eddy
