A Glimpse

The other day it rained. Prior to that the temps were in the 50-60's. In February? In a region that just experienced a blizzard? Yes, that's what happened. As I left service I could smell the rain. It was a wonderful smell. An unfamiliar one after not having rain in quite some while. I sort of rejoiced in that. Besides I was in a great mood after hearing the word of God. Of course rain can make your 'do turn into a poof and may damage your shoes but what is the purpose of this rain? Well in regards to spring it is a sign of things to come. It is a reminder that it has to come in order for thing to grow. It is a sign that this is the process and without this process growth will be halted. Could you imagine looking at bare trees all year long. The grass as dark as the pavement. Although I may be a little discouraged by the gloominess that sometimes accompanies rain I know that the outcome is great. Hmmm. So what's all the talk about rain? Well Without giving too much detail , something I was interested in just was not for me. At that time. I went through the whole process and as I was putting on the finishing touches I kind of drowned out the voice of the person assisting me(sorry JC). But I didn't do it intentionally. I paused because I saw me. In a different time. A time where I actually had what I was looking for. I didn't just see myself I felt myself. I felt how it would feel when this one thing would be done. I can feel myself without a burden. I felt myself beaming from in the inside. Oh Jesus! I saw myself without chains! I knew from then on out that yes this is for me. I received confirmation that maybe not at this moment. Not in this day but surely it will come. And when it does I'm coming out with my hands up! I will beam from the inside. I will walk in a ray of sunshine. And the smile on my face that looked liked it hurt will not be a vision but reality. Hmmm. If things seem gloomy I know at the end there is a rainbow and by faith I Will have grown. Matter a fact that little tid bit of rain just brought out a root. A root to keep me firmly planted in the kingdom of God. It was like a taste. And now I'm thirsty. Thirsty because I know God is able. MATTER OF FACT HE IS ABLE TO DO EXCEEDING ABUNDANTLY ABOVE ALL THAT I CAN ASK OR THINK AND THE POWER WORKETH IN ME. THANK YOU JESUS! Any way I'm Thirsty because I know I cannot stop until my thirst is quenched! Oh taste and see that the lord is good. (Psalms 34:8) Continue to feast on the Word of God. Have a blessed day.
