Rain. Psalm 135:1-7

The rain usually reminds me of the goodness of God. It's the rain that heals the land and brings life to plants and animals alike. At the same time the storm reminds me of the strength of God. Thunder and lightening have always fascinated me. This morning, around 6:00, there was a clap of thunder that shook our house. I thought, that's the glory of God. Today, remember that God is as good as He is strong. That's a pretty good combination to have in a God.

Psalm 135:1-7
1 Praise the LORD.
Praise the name of the LORD;
praise him, you servants of the LORD,

2 you who minister in the house of the LORD,
in the courts of the house of our God.

3 Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good;
sing praise to his name, for that is pleasant.

4 For the LORD has chosen Jacob to be his own,
Israel to be his treasured possession.

5 I know that the LORD is great,
that our Lord is greater than all gods.

6 The LORD does whatever pleases him,
in the heavens and on the earth,
in the seas and all their depths.

7 He makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth;
he sends lightning with the rain
and brings out the wind from his storehouses.
