It is raining outside my window as I write this. Today is September 11 (9/11) Everyone is caught up in a horrible disaster created by hatred.
We need to rise above it. We need to know God's love and we need to live it.

The Healing Power of Rain


 


Life can seem dark, dismal and bleak


It can seem that everything brings on more pain.


At times like this you strive and seek


For healing but find only more hurt to your distain.


When you are feeling helpless and weak


Talk to God as you watch the rain.


Through Jesus Christ, he delivers us all


From all our heartaches and relieves our soul.


For just as the raindrops wash off the soil


They are like the Holy Spirit for its goal


Is to wash away our cares and help us toil


To perform the will of Our Heavenly Master.


It can bring good even in the wake of disaster.


When life hits you with horror and you have nowhere else to turn.


Trust in God and believe on his son


Never stop praying until life on earth is done.


Call on God and you soon will learn


That his everlasting love goes far beyond the sun.


He is calling to you and to me and guiding our every turn.


Let us serve him throughout this earthly life and do not fear to live


Be the best that you can be each and every day.


Do all you can and give all you can give.


If you fail, he will forgive and cast your sins away.

Hi Lew, I'm late responding to this one, but you've done a lovely job here. How appropriate that it should rain...in honor of the terrible loss of 9/11. You sure are blessed with compassion and wisdom, my friend, and I'm blessed to know you.

God Bless you...always...

Praise Jesus, for your talent and compasssion, Lew! This is wonderfully penned, first to last line. God bless you!

Each year, I spend the "anniversary" in a day of prayer and intercession...alone with the LORD. I sobbed so much yesterday, my eyes were nearly swollen shut...

Had we been able, we would have travelled to Shanksville, to see our President, as he poured his love out, onto, the loved ones of the Heroes, from Flight 93, who went down here in Pennsylvania, about 2 hours away. The LORD wept on them there yesterday..
Now today, here, The LORD is weeping again.......and like you, I know it is His cleansing, healing rain.

Love, Rhonda
