We know that April showers bring May flowers. But do we give credit to the one who causes the rain and the flowers to “do their thing”? Or are we so busy being critical of the rain and the flowers that cause allergies, and hay fever that we forget to stop and smell the flowers, see the rainbows and enjoy the season for what it is. A new beginning! How many times have we heard or said that we are sick of the rain and need to have sunshine?? We get depressed because of the gray skies and rain, but fail to see that we need both to have the new life of spring to begin, and if we look deep within, we will find that we do have SONSHINE!! So let’s start saying “Thank you, Lord, for all you do for us, for all you give us, and for all that you trust us with to take care of for you.” As a human, it seems we are never happy with where we are, or what we have. It is either too hot, to cold, too wet or too dry! Scripture says in 1 Thessalonians 5:16 - 18, “Be joyful always, pray continually; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” In Philippians 4:11, Paul writes, “I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.” Can we honestly say that we are joyful, pray continually, or that we have learned to be content in any circumstance? After thinking on these things for a while, let’s see if our attitude will change if we center on the SONSHINE!!!!!!
