Rain on me

You may think why my profile picture is of a person without a head. Well it is true, the picture is of a person, and that person is me. I do have a head, it is just bent backwards.
As me and my sister were taking some pictures on a day with a beautiful sky when it was about to rain, I started feeling drops. Right then and there this verse came to mind:

"Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy, break up
your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he
come and rain righteousness upon you." ~Hosea 10:12

I find this such a beautiful verse. It is a verse full of blessings and promises, but also one full of commandments and things we ought to do when we claim, believe, and trust that we are Christ's and desire to live a Christ-like life.



As it started raining I bent over backwards (huh) and felt the rain drops fall on me. The feeling of rain washing over me made me desire the righteousness of God to rain upon me, and His return, one last time! To live forever, with Him, in glory. What more could we want?!

a new blogger

I have been following many blogs for many years. I have also had a blog or two myself for a number of years, but sort of just given up on it. And here I am, today, setting up another blog. To write about my thoughts, my things, my life. So that I can get them off my mind, and share the many thoughts I have racing through my head, daily or as often as I can with you and anyone who is interested really.
This will be a challenge, I think, as I try figure out how things work on Blogspot. But also as I start writing down more and more stuff for the 'public' to read. What will come of it? I seriously have no idea. We will have to wait and see how I do things on this blog, how long I stick around this time, and how many people will visit. (haha)
I hope to write many of my thoughts down on here, whenever I can.
My prayer is that this blog will be a blessing for many, as well as for myself. That through this I can honour and glorify my heavenly Father Who blessed me with the love of writing!

"Trust in the LORD with all thine heart;
and lean
not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall
direct thy paths" ~Proverbs 3:5,6
