LET IT RAIN!

Here in Spain during our two+ weeks so far of lockdown, 

we have had a LOT of spring rain. There have been 

conversations about if the rain makes it easier to have 

to stay indoors with varying opinions. In general, most 

of us living in southern Spain are completely spoiled with

 the many days of sun. But today, the rain is speaking...

and I for one, am listening.

The hard rain is buffeting the ground

The ground is oversaturated

and sits in docility

Receiving the abundance

The streets, patios, alleys & drains

surge with drops & swirls & rivulets

They join other sources in growing strength

And course together down the street in victory.

Oh! that it could wash away the virus!

Oh! that it could cleanse the air forever!

How we all need these spiritual rains

Showering down on our heads, our minds

Sanitizing our thoughts, unhealthy defaults

We need this atoning drizzle over our hearts & souls

I need it to pour over my emotions

taking the negative & toxic ones away in the stream

I need gentle showers over my spirit

refreshing, restoring, redeeming

And over all our bodies

Please let it rain atonement, cleansing, healing.

This hard rain buffeting the ground?

It is music, it is provision, it is life

It is God´s invitation to a deeper, internal work.
