Rainmaker
O Lord
you are as
a sweet mist that
settles softly upon me
falling gently as light rain
with words from your mouth
cleansing my wet upturned face
as rushing rivulets of your love are
seeping into the deep river of my soul
that is ever widening until it overflows
immersed in the torrents of your spirit
drenching my dry and so thirsty heart
filling my empty cup full to the brim
your rain dancing all around me
spills into another soul
{written in 1999 by me}
Go dance in His rain today.
And remember
that
you
are
His
raindrop
falling
on
thirsty
soil.
This is beautiful...you are a wonderful writer...love this...love the Rainmaker...love you...
