Its been awhile
Busy week. Teaching, prepping, teaching, working on someone else's work. At least there's something new to read here. No, this is not generated from my brain. There's too much neurons blasting away to make any sense. Hehe.....
This I took from the Friendster bulletin. Yea, I'm a lazy ass :P
Rain...
One rainy afternoon I was driving along one of the main streets of town, taking those extra
precautions necessary when the roads are wet and slick.
Suddenly, my daughter, Aspen, spoke up from her relaxed position in her seat. "Dad, I'm
thinking of something."
This announcement usually meant she had been pondering some fact for a while, and
was now ready to expound all that her six-year-old mind had discovered. I was eager to hear. "What are you thinking?" I asked.
"The rain! ;" she began, "is like sin, and the windshield wipers are like God wiping our sins away."
After the chill bumps raced up my arms I was able to respond.
"That's really good, Aspen."
Then my curiosity broke in. How far would this little girl take this revelation? So I asked... "Do you notice how the rain keeps on coming? What does that tell you?"
Aspen didn't hesitate one moment with her answer:
"We keep on sinning, and God just keeps on forgiving us."
I will always remember this whenever I turn my wipers on.
Isn't it distressing to know that when you forward this message you will not send it to many
on your address list because you're not sure what they believe, or what they will think of you for sending it to them. Funny how we can be more worried about what other people think
of us than what God thinks of us. In order to see the Rainbow, you must first endure some Rain.
