n all that He does, or permits,
knowing that He doeth all
things well, True, some persons
look at me askance when /
tell them I love the rain, and
1t is a source of amusement to
see the expressions on their
faces. But, if you contract the
habit of enjoying everything
you will find that it is hard
to break that habit as any
other. have quit beeflng about
the weather Git does not alter
anything anyway and spend
my time looking for the sun to
break through the clouds. Try
it. 1t is typical of life We find |
ourselves up to our necks in
hills to climb, but there is
top to every hill: the sun is
always shining behind the
clouds; weeping may endure
for night, but Joy cometh
in the morning. SO, if you hear
that I have been taken out of
circulation by "the man" it is
probobly because I refused to
call His weather bad.
