Above The Clouds

Promise of the Day:
If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth.
(Ecclesiastes 11:3)

Prayer:
" Above the Clouds the sun is always shining." This could be: 'behind the clouds of life the SON is always shining.' You, Lord, cannot be blocked out. You have promised to always be with me. Another familiar song is "Singing in the Rain." The flowers and grass wither and die without the rain--and so the clouds are needed in each life to bring us the blessings from the rain. Faith will see the clouds emptying themselves and making the dryness of life rejoice. Here in the NW when we have a cloudy day, we get what is called "sun breaks". So it is in life, not only do we need the rain, but You, Lord, are always near so that You give us "Son" breaks to remind us of Your presence and love. Someone has said that 'The blue of heaven is larger than the clouds.' Thank You, Lord, for the rain and for the 'Son' breaks. Amen
