Some Blessings are Burdens, Some Burdens are Blessings

So went the words of Dr. T. Crichton Mitchell, a professor of mine in Bible College, 30 years ago. Dr. Mitchell was telling us of a sight he had seen earlier in the day. It was a prospective student getting a tour of the campus with his 2 year old daughter sound asleep on his shoulder. He told us as ministers of the Word of God we would need to keep a keen eye for these things the LORD puts in our path which could be jumping off spots for a message or illustration.

This morning all over the Metro Area people are moaning as they see the rain. Even the forecasters sound gloomy putting a negative spin on it. But not so with us gardeners! We know the great benefits from a nice steady rain. There is nothing on earth like it. God is watering for us today!

Thanks LORD!
Sorry about those who are complaining.
