[Pressing-On]

Good thoughts, Randy and lovely picture!

It reminded of a time when I was in a difficult storm/trial. During a time of prayer the Lord showed me a man in a hot desert - miles of sand and the sun beating down. So vivid! I could see the sand glimmering in the hot sun and feel the heat of the day!

He spoke to me and asked, "What hope does this man have?"

I said, "That someone would come and rescue him, I guess."

He brought this song to my mind.

You Make It Rain

You led me down a rocky road
To teach my feet to stand
Then you led me through the valley low
So that I would hold your hand
And on the raging sea of time
You taught my eyes to see
Like a flower in the rain
You helped me to grow
You make it rain for me

We've been walking many many miles
And you have never failed
Through flames and flood
I've walked with you
And on through the stormy gales
No matter where your steps may go
Or whereever they may lead
Out in the desert so hot and dry
I know you'll make it rain for me

You formed the clouds with your own hands
To hide the light of day
So that I would learn to trust in you
All along the way
And Lord, I won't question tears I've cried
While down on bended knees
For when my soul gets thirsty, Lord,
You make it rain for me


He is faithful! I'm in a storm right now, but I trust in the Lord! He will make it rain for me! What He is saying in the song is that when it looks hopeless and you can't get out and can't find help - He is the one that will bring you out. He is the one that will sustain you!
