Sometimes I just have to remind myself I am not

God woke me up today, to a world splashed over with water, and a beautiful painting in the sky. At first, the sky looked like it was on fire, then the clouds moved to reveal a rising sun, which was golden and more beautiful than a mind full of diamonds. It was a beautiful choreography of cloud movement and sun rising through the trees. For just a short while, I saw the clouds cleared for my birthday. It was wonderful. Then I remembered what someone was telling me over and over last night as the rain fell down, "It is raining for you." I thought that was silly, until I realized how much it meant this morning. The rain was falling down, the same rain that was freeing to me last year. The rain that brought me to know my Father better. Oh Lord let it rain, for I have seen your glory in the sun this morning, and wait for it to pour down on this earth. If it be your will, let it rain down in the rays of the sun. I have seen your beauty as you opened my eyes to a dance of birds through the trees and the skies. Thank you. Thank you for beautiful people, thank you for beautiful songs, thank you for a beautiful world.
