God Is Our Umbrella

God is our umbrella in the storms of life
Ready to shield us from the rain
But we must remember to always carry it with us
Not put it aside, hoping the sun will always shine
Rainy days are blessings in disguise
For it is then that lessons are learned
And if we take good care of our umbrella
Not carelessly putting it aside
It will always be there for us
Shielding us from whatever storms may come.
