God Sends Rain
October 2, 2022
You know it's going to rain because Grammy prayed!
A few weeks ago, Jim, a member of our prayer team, prayed for rain. We had had quite a dry spell and with the threat of forest fires, it was certainly a good time to "pray" for rain.
I shared with my twin granddaughters that Jim had prayed for rain. They were commenting on the hazy sky and how they wished to see blue sky. So I said, Since we prayed for rain today in our prayer time, let's pray for rain too before we drive home. So I prayed and invited them to pray too.
As I was driving home, I overheard them saying to each other, "You know it's going to rain, because Grammy prayed ...."
That night it rained and the next night it rained and it was not in the forcast. The hazy sky cleared up. God is good!
