Raining Blessings

Issa had a dentist appointment this morning (no cavities--yeah!), and it started to pour on the way to school. They were unexpected showers, and the following conversation ensued:

"Issa, it looks like you might not get to play outside today after all."

"Why?"

"Because it's raining."

"Why didn't I bring an umbrella."

"Because the weatherman said it wasn't going to rain today."

"Why is it raining then?"

"Because God must have decided we needed it to make our grass green and the crops and flowers grow."

"I guess we shouldn't wish it away then. God knows what He's doing."

Gulp. Enough said.

Dear Lord, thank you for sending my daughter to remind me that you do know best, and the struggles and rainy days are according to Your plan and purpose. Amen.
