O Lord, your love is like the rain from heaven.
Giving life, refreshment and satisfying our thirst.
It may come upon us like a soft sunshine shower-
Or with the gusty, chill wind out of the west.
Sometimes punctuated by thunder from the clouds which blanket
all the trees and houses in monochromatic gray.
Your blessings nourish us as the drops of water awaken the leaves and buds of all things growing in the world of your creation.
Your power stirs us like the wind moving on the face of the pond.
We see not the wind, only the effect of it.
In some, the effect is shallow, almost superficial.
In others, it pulses strong as the currents in the deepest ocean.
How gracious, how merciful, how perceptive;
you know our innermost being better than we know ourselves.
Yet, you love us all and build up each one of your children
as we are able to grasp the reality of your presence in our lives.
I would no more want to be without your love, O Lord,
than this parched land wants to be denied the life giving rain.
All praise, honor and adoration belong to you, O Lord,
for the love with which you first loved us.
