Droplets

As i left the house this day i made a point to pray; my heart sank seeing the skies my lips put out to dry. So as i usually do my prayers see me through; i begged the Lord, "no rain" i begged, cast out the pain. As i reached my pit-stop point the skies all out of joint; in His mercy He would hold even droplets, oh! my, no! The Lord held thus the clouds my prayers from my mouth; in His mercy answered thus my prayers into verse. A lesson to be learnt His Love ne'er abandon; the skies to shine for all His Mercies never small! Amen!

maybe its my phobia towards the weather, maybe the dark clouds send me into prayerful panic, or maybe i just can't see the road when it rains; but in His Mercy, we make it through the day. for that, we are thankful to Christ and pray He will always cover us. to the drivers out there, "God Bless, and drive safely!" Amen!
