Fill up and complete my joy by living in harmony
and being of the same mind and one in purpose,
having the same love,
being in full accord and
of one harmonious mind and intention.
Philippians 2:2 (Amplified Bible)
Sara Groves: Rain
Call it what you will I call it rain
When troubles come and pat against my soul
Go in if you like, I will remain
And let the washing waters make me Whole
When troubles come and pat against my soul
Go in if you like, I will remain
And let the washing waters make me Whole
Just when I’m sure that I can't bear the rain
A tiny leaf starts pushing through the ground
In a place where the ground was too dry to sustain it
A new tiny flower can be found
A tiny leaf starts pushing through the ground
In a place where the ground was too dry to sustain it
A new tiny flower can be found
Once I was stuck I thought things would never change
As I watched a cloud pass through the sky
Right before my eyes it took a different shape
And I knew, so were the clouds in my own life
As I watched a cloud pass through the sky
Right before my eyes it took a different shape
And I knew, so were the clouds in my own life
I see Him in the rain
I feel Him wash away
What I do not understand
So new life can spring up once Again
I feel Him wash away
What I do not understand
So new life can spring up once Again

Hopping over from Sunday Stillness. Sweet messages we indeed receive in the rain. I haven't heard that song before. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful image paired with a favorite Scripture...may we all pursue the harmony that is such a joyful sound to our Father!
ReplyDeleteLove it. Have a Blessed Sunday!
ReplyDeleteI like the feel of the room in your picture...white and spare. I just came back from a week at a convent in Iowa and felt the calm of a plain environment like that. I think there is a lesson there somewhere.
ReplyDeleteLovely, Nina!
