UPDATE
God is so good and knows just what our souls need. 

As we begin to experience some of the effects of the hurricane that’s been in Florida we had a wonderful and blessed soaking rain today for about an hour.  We were reading when we heard what sounded like rain and looked out to see it pouring.  So what does any good stressed out homeschooling mom do when it rains? 

Well, we ran out in it, of course. 

We jumped in puddles, splashed mud everywhere and got soaking wet. 
It was wonderful and just what I needed because I’ve just been taking life way too seriously lately as I feel all the pressures of being a homeschooler of four and a mom. 

The rain reminded me that God is in control of everything and the rain was so welcome because we’re in such a drought.  We haven’t had rain in so long….weeks and weeks and weeks.  So just like sunshine after rainy days we rejoiced in the rain and played.

I could feel my spirits lift as we played in the rain today.  Any neighbor watching probably thought we’d lost our minds!  But boy was it fun. 

Real life struck again later as we ran errands.  All three boys are on their beds for bad behavior now. 

"OK Lord, I’m ready for some more rain!

……please?"


Speak Your Mind
