And the rains came tumbling down


I hope you can see the rainbow. Some of the most beautiful rainbows we have ever seen have been here in Tanzania. We have been so blessed with rains, although they didn't begin as early this year as last year, but in December we had over 6 inches and this month already over 2 inches.
On Wednesday nights we have a short devotion time, just Terry & Nan, and every week we end with the song, Morning Has Broken. The second verse says, "Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven, like the first dew fall, on the first grass. Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden, sprung in completeness where His feet pass." The rainbow reminds us of His promise of never to destroy the world by flood, but it also is a reminder of His blessings here on earth. Count your blessings today!
