Five "Showers of Blessing" From a Late Summer Rain

This morning sitting on my "porch of praise" I was blessed by a big, loud, blowing thunderstorm.


1.  Rain, pouring down, sweeping in sheets across the avenue, darkening the sky, but brightening my day. 
I love thunderstorms.

2.  Thunder-- rolling, rumbling, crashing, electrifying the sky.
It is beautiful and powerful and awesome~
Just like the Lord God Almighty!

3.  Curb-side creeks flowing down, washing clean the streets and sidewalks.

4. Rain pitter-patter pounding, soaking flowers, fruits and veggies, bring life to dry ground.

5. The fragrance of  rain-washed freshness, fills my heart and lifts the spirit to the all powerful
Creator God
Who rains down all good gifts
Onto all His children
Simply 
Because 
He loves us


And just when you think it's all over
Ka-BOOM!
One last shout-out from God, the Rain-giver's exclamation point.


Thank you, Lord, for these showers of blessing! All creation is telling Your glory.
