Rain....and Birds



I am marveling....

About Birds and Rain


This morning I read something profound. God knew what I needed.

I happened upon a Facebook post from someone I do not really know. And it was really good. Dan Monk gets the credit for the insight and inspiration for this blog post.

He shared how his wife was wondering how the birds like the rain. Do they still sing in the rain?

Upon researching it he found that not only do they sing in the rain, but they seem to sing more loudly!

Upon further research, he found that it is actually the rain drops that amplify their melodic message.

When the rain falls in our life, let's not quit singing. Rather, let's keep singing, maybe more then ever. Let's keep praising Jesus and exclaiming His comforting and encouraging Truth.

Knowing that in the rainy seasons, God will amplify our songs and make them resound greater then ever!

Let's be the source of His music!

God Stories. What's yours?

    I am marveling at God stories. What's yours?? Our daughter has a good friend. Her name is Stephanie. She is creative, talented, bubbly, sensitive and loves Jesus! And she wrote a book. For kids. About God. Called Always Remember . It is different then most kid's books. It has a poetic lilt which is beautiful, but atypical in its cadence. It's wording is unique; yet lovely. It is simple and it is deep.  It's premise is pivotal, declaring Truth! It is almost layered in that each reading of this basically simple book helps peel back another level of understanding and appreciation. It is a book that is actually instructional. It should be read often as a way to reflect and then to live. The main theme is teaching kids (and adults alike) to... Stop. Ponder. Remember God. To see Him every day in everything. To align daily with who He is. It is beautifully illustrated, with large colorful pictures that engage, teach, enlighten and intrigue. She shared how the book was firs...

There once was a fly....

  I am musing on a story that begins like this.... There once was a fly. There once was a fly. It lived in Salt Lake City. More specifically, in Kingsbury Hall on the campus of the University of Utah. Kingsbury Hall is the Performing Arts Center. So that fly had the opportunity to view many productions. Last night, that fly was viewing a televised production that likely millions were watching. As that fly buzzed around, it decided to land on a nice head of white hair. And stay there awhile. Little did he know, that he was sitting on the head of the Vice President of the United States. Little did he know how important the role of Vice President of the United States is. Little did he know how important the upcoming election which was being debated is. Little did he know how much of that country's future was at stake. Little did he know how many prayers were being offered for that man upon whose head he sat... and  for those he works with Little did he know of the challenges that...
