We've been having so much rain that if I didn't know God promised not to flood the earth again, I'd be worried. Local news last night reported rats invading homes to get out of the water. Our ground is 93% saturated making it difficult for farmers to put in crops. Things look grim. The sky is overcast, gray, and drab.
Yet, my eyes find beautiful green trees where just a few weeks ago we had stark barren limbs. I may complain about the grass needing cut, but it is beautiful, lush, and green. My flower gardens are gorgeous. Stepping outside, there is a clean smell of rain washed land.
Whenever things look dark, I only have to move my eyes to see God's hand. And I thank Him.
