Rain falls on the soil of the earth, on the leaves of a plant and waters it. It takes more rain to reach down, through the earth to refresh and revitalize the plant in reaching its roots.
This- is how change affects me.
A little change, and it just get my leaves wet. No big deal. Bring on alot of it and my life is in a downpour.
You could say that I am at the place where I have finally opened up to receive it. To turn my head to the water and let it refresh me all the way down to the roots of my soul.
Friends and mentors have come and gone. Some have stayed. New friends and mentors have come.
Seasons of winter have passed. Spring has come, bringing with it a song, to fill my heart and rise to my lips.
With change comes reawakened hope that I will indeed see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living (Psalm 27:13).
Just hear these lyrics in a song tonight, "Sometimes the sun shines brightest after the rain."
