Rain

Rain, one of the many essentials we need, want, and cannot buy. How comforting it sounds, dripping outside my bedroom window. How refreshed the whole landscape will be tomorrow after this soaking. The rain brings coolness in its wake, the first hint of approaching autumn. Now the hellish heat has lost its grip. The drought is broken. This evening, I am sereneded by the lullaby of the raindrops falling from the night sky. Thank You, Father.
