Dance in the rain, or through the rain

If it is raining in your part of the world today, or if the sun is shining, but, your heart is a deep, dark blue, and you feel like giant raindrops are falling from your eyes. Stop whatever you are doing, grab an umbrella, a bright, colorful one if you own one. If not, you must go to Walmart when you can, and get a cheerful colored umbrella. Now, open your umbrella, stand underneath it, and shout praises to your Lord. Thank Him for your life, for the rain, for your tears(if you are crying), for catching your tears, and keeping them in a beautiful jar. Now, tell Him that you have a gift for Him. Proceed to dance before Him with joy, joy, joy in your heart my friends.

When we go through trials big or small it is sometimes difficult that God really just wants us to praise him and commune with him, and he will look after the rest. Blessings my dear. May there be heaps more blessings on you and your home and marriage. Hugs. xx

Oh my gosh; what a wonderful idea. I will work on getting a colorful umbrella. I love the thought of dancing and praying and saying praises to our Lord and king. You will be blessed for your awesome attitude.
Blessings for this sweet post.

Beautiful, Denise!!! This reminds me of the beautiful umbrella that my Women's Ministry at my church gave us all at last summer's conference. Isn't it amazing that the Lord saves our tears in a bottle? Mine is filled to over-flowing, I'm sure, but to think that He cares so much is so amazing! God is so good!!! Praising Him through all things with you!

Love you, dear friend - Julie

I love this post !!!!!! Just think,someday in Our future We can dance before the king.That's one of the things I can't wait to do.Here on earth I was born with a weak left foot(drop foot)and paralyzed left toes from a stroke at or before birth.I have LOVED to dance since a child,even ballet(in My imagination)I'll dance beside You there-it's a date-and We will be so beautiful.
