Rain!

Rain!!! I don't think that I have ever been so happy to see it pour rain like it did on Friday afternoon. We have been in the dry season here for the past few months and when I say dry, it has been dry. God is truly in control... It is clear. If he holds back the waters, there is drought; if he lets them loose, they devastate the land Job 12:15




We were able to fill over 5 buckets. Thank God, because it would have been another weekend of unwashed dishes and unflushed toilettes. 


The children all had a blast running and playing in the rain while it washed away dirty little hands and feet. Not that they saw that positive side, they wanted to play soccer in the muddy water and put all the dirt back on. 


I am hopeful that this was the beginning of the end of the dry season. I only pray that as the rain continues to fall and we begin to grow weary of damp clothes and frizzy hair, we do not grumble and complain. 


More to come...
