RAINY DAYS AND MONDAYS
“Rainy days and Mondays always get me down”. Like the lyrics from the Carpenter’s very popular song in the 70’s, it’s Monday, raining, and I am “talking to myself and feeling low”. The effects of tropical storm Fay have been hovering over the Birmingham metro area all day. The weather has certainly been bleak with continuous rains, gusty winds, and a low cloud deck. So if it’s a cloudy rainy day, that I don’t seem to like, I welcome this rain after coming off three years of drought. Sitting here listening to the wind and rain, I realize how thankful I am that God balances everything in the universe, keeping in sink things we cannot control. I also know tomorrow the air will be cleaner, the trees and grass greener, the flowers a bit brighter, and the streams and lakes a little fuller. So share with me thanks to God for all we have including our families, friends, neighbors; and, yes, even rainy days and Mondays!
