Rain on a Sunny Day!

WOW!  Long time, no post.  Does that mean that nothing has happened?  No,  I guess I have just been pushing it back.  Sometimes when I write on this it causes me to reflect on things going on and I haven’t felt like reflecting.  Today I was driving home from church and even though there were a few clouds in the sky it was very bright and sunny.  All of a sudden it started raining with the sun still shining.  That made me think about things that are happening in my life right now and how I feel.  On one side I feel motivated and excited and can sense the presence of God, but on the other in the middle of that sun there is a rain cloud that just keeps popping up occasionally and I ask God where He is and why I can’t sense His presence.  I have been reading my Bible in One Year each night and each night there is a section of the Psalms to read.  Many times David is crying out to God asking where He is and other times praising God for who He is.  That is who I relate to right now, one moment crying out and the next praising Him for who He is.  Sometimes it is so hard to see past your circumstance and know that there will be a silver lining.  I just keep reminding myself that it is just a season and with seasons they come and go.  My prayer is that I will take what this season has brought, remember it and learn from it.  ”There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven.”  Ecclesiastes 3:1
