NOOMA Rain | 001
"But please, please-won't you-can't you give me something that will cure Mother?" Up till then he had been looking at the Lion's great feet and the huge claws on them; now, in his despair, he looked up at its face. What he saw surprised him as much as anything in his whole life. For the tawny face was bent down near his own and (wonder of wonders) great shining tears stood in the Lion's eyes. They were such big, bright tears compared with Digory's own that for a moment he felt as if the Lion must really be sorrier about his Mother than he was himself.
-The Magician's Nephew, Chapter 12
It is unimaginable how much Your heart breaks every second of every day across this world. Even when I lay my head down to rest there are brothers and sisters on the other side of the world awake and in pain. Even before I took my first breath on this planet Your children who stood before me hurt.
As I write this someone loses a mother, loses a son, and You feel their suffering sevenfold.
Love is a risk.
But it's worth it. Love is worth the risk. It's worth the pain, the storms, the rain.
Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock. But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash.
-Jesus
Though the rain comes, when the rains and floods come. In this life there will always be storms.
Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.
-Jesus
I will have many trials and sorrows. Rain is a guarantee in this life. But without rain there can be no growth. Without rain there is no harvest. It is in the valleys that the fruit grows not on the desolate mountain tops.
Dad knows the way home. Abba knows the way.
