Still Got the Son

So, I was standing in Dollar General getting 2 gallons of water for my aunt, and I began to pay attention to the song that was playing on the store's loudspeaker. The old classic, "Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head." I started humming and then I began to listen to the words and it really began to minister to me. No, I am not crazy! Look at the lyrics, "Raindrops keep fallin' on my head. But, that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red. Cryin's not for me! 'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin'. Because I'm free. Nothin's worryin' me." As I began to look at this song, I see that this man is in a perpetual storm – it's showering. There is a continual flow of rain and it just does not seem to let up. But, he said, I will not cry because my complaining is not going to make nature stop what it is doing. And at the last line, he says something that blew my mind. He said that even though he was dealing with all this water, all this damage, all the storm clouds that he would not be fazed because he was "free."

I began to think how occupied we get with the rain that is falling, but we tend to forget the fact that we are free.  We forget that we are no longer bound, that we have been given liberty and even though the other stuff in our life is not all that sunny, everyday we still have the "son!"  Somebody missed that even though it is not always sunny, we still have the son, meaning because you have Him in you, you should emit light!  It is time that we stop complaining and belly aching about the raindrops that keep on falling.  Instead, focus on the fact that we are free! And if we are free, what are we to worry about? God has us covered! He said so in his word. This is short, but I felt it is something that the body needed right now! Raindrops keep falling because God wants you to keep growing. For every time you feel a rain drop, you should thank God for the harvest that will grow because of what just hit you.
