FULL CLOUDS AND HEAVY DOWNPOURS

SCRIPTURE: If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth: and if the tree fall toward the south, or toward the north, in the place where the tree falleth, there it shall be. He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap. – Ecclesiastes 11:3-4

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Nobody may see or notice your sacrifice but everyone must see your rainfall

During the hot seasons of the year, the sun beats on water surfaces causing water to evaporate into the sky. When water is sufficiently collected in the sky and the cloud can no longer hold it, it falls back to the earth as rain. If rain is not falling despite the process of evaporation, it is because the cloud is not yet full. As soon as the cloud is full, the rain must fall. And when it is really time for rain to fall, it is usually a downpour and not drizzle.

The interesting thing is that nobody sees the process of evaporation; what goes up is invisible, but what comes down as rain is not only visible but tangible. What goes up as water vapour is insignificant compared to what comes down as rain. That is how life is. That is also how the lifestyle of sowing and reaping is; that is how giving and receiving is.

During the hot seasons of your life when things seem not to be working, that is the best time to give to God. When your cloud is full of rain, it must empty itself on your life. If you observe natural conditions, you will not sow, and if you do not sow, you cannot reap. Nobody may see or notice your sacrifice but everyone must see your rainfall. Keep filling the cloud, the rain is coming!

Remember this: Nobody may see or notice your sacrifice but everyone must see your rainfall.

ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Make giving a lifestyle even when things seem to be difficult.
2. Be patient.
