Let the Rain Fall.....

Let's go back
Back to the beginning
Back to when the earth, the sun, the stars all aligned
'Cause perfect didn't feel so perfect
Trying to fit a square into a circle
Was no lie
I defy
Let the rain fall down
And wake my dreams
Let it wash away
My sanity

lyrics by Hillary Duff "Let the Rain Fall"

It falls steadily from the sky in a random

rhythm....

sacred dew drops,

misty morning splashes

cleansing

cooling and awakening

my

spirit once again.

It startles me at first,

almost scares me,

this

mystical encounter

of

unexpected

anointing.

I thought that you'd forgotten about me,

or

perhaps,

I've tried to forget about your connection...

seems

it

always leads down the path to pain,

to hurt,

and

yes

everybody says there is a sacrifice to follow,

I just didn't expect

alienation,

exclusion,

disconnect

from

my source of Spirit

from the community of my raising

from the temple of your dwelling.

and

suddenly

in

the midst of gray

morning,

in the midst of aromatic

fragrance,

I was touched....

touched by an encounter with you

reminding me

of

valley

shadows,

a rekindling of sort

to reminder

of your eternal presence

of

the recognition that

YOU

are with me....whether I acknowledge You or not.

I cannot fathom it,

sometimes

choose to not recognize it,

but

there

underneath

all this emotion,

all this "stuff" swirling through my head,

you come,

come in the midst of

my own entombment

and

invite

me

to experience a resurrection of spirit.

Rain,

splashing on my head,

washing away

my sorrow,

Let it fall,

fall on me,

for

it

reminds me of YOU.

May all of you

feel the anointing of sacred encounter

during this

week of

the

Holy.

Blessings
