Gentle rain
A lullaby
Quietly soothes my heart
It calms me
Heals me
Refreshes me
Gentle rain
Slows me down
Why the rush?
What' the hurry?
Take a moment
Stay
Today I Pray...
Please help me Lord
To keep the quiet comfort
in my heart and mind
That comes on a rainy day
The rain nurtures the soil
It nourishes my spirit
Thank You for the rain.

Inspiration Found
If you only knew
How many times
I've stared at this blank screen
Hoping the words would come
Wishing I could hear that voice
That once guided me
And told me what to say
But for months now
I've heard nothing
Where are You, God?
The words on this page
may be mine
But to me, there has never been a doubt
That they flowed freely
From You
For months now
I've been lacking
Your heavenly inspiration
Where are You, God?
The sun rose
The dog barked
The bird chirped
The owl hooted
My child smiled
...and just like that
I remembered
You are everywhere.
Today I Pray...
...that I keep my eyes and ears
open to You.
...that I recognize Your presence
in all things -- however big or small
...that I let myself
be bathed in the warmth
of Your love
That I might never again
need to search for
the omnipresent One
who is my God
"No longer shall the sun be your light by day, Nor the brightness of the moon shine upon you at night;
The Lord shall be your light forever, your God shall be your glory." ~ Isaiah 60:19
