Notes About The Poem

I believe that soon a last day move will come from the Holy Spirit
and just before Jesus Christ comes for His church. 

It Is Beginning To Rain

It is beginning to Rain

The day of the latter rain from
Heaven already has begun, 
bringing healing to His body
and refreshing to this lifeless desolate land.

With His eyes we can see that
some of His people are as fragile as day lilies, 
parched and dry by the hot winds of adversity
tossed and torn by the master of evil’s wiles.

To the natural eye
it would seem that some of these really have no hope, 
yet because of our Glorious Shepherd
they have never left the range of His visual scope.

So just as has been promised
this rain is beginning to fall, 
bringing healing, deliverance and restoration
to all when on His name they call.

And falling even on those quite unrepentantly
for you see, our God is a God of grace
and He searched for those of us who are lost and 
who sometimes have not sought knowingly for His beautiful face.

This rain, even though it has no physical appearance
yet its effects will be seen by all of man,
for in its drops contain the goodness, and blessings, from our Father of in Heaven
and all that is needed to heal our devastated land.
