 God. after withholding the rain for 60 or 70 days, to show us he was good, began to send the gentle showers un our yellow and burning crops. and you could imagine that you saw the vegetation look up and heard it give thanks to the Almighty Creator: and as the dry earth drank in the gentle rain drops the vegetation began to take on new life and spring forth anew to make many times more than we could possibly expect. God has always sent the rains before il was too late
