Umbrella

      " I love the rain and i always thank the Lord for the rainy days because it gives me an opportunity to share my umbrella."

      As I recalled some memories of my past, I am always humbled and grateful for those people who shared their umbrellas with me. For in that process, I get to learn to share my own umbrella to others as well.

      Sometimes, i do like to run or walk  and get wet in the rain. It seems that the more I tossed by the wind of trials  and rains of problems, I could see the blessings within them in disguise. Wow. I grow better and ever. And I believe the same holds true to us  who encountered the same. The rains in our lives whether hard or not are actually blessings in disguise. They are opportunities for growth. They are like windows for spiritual advancement. I believe it is in the rain where the seed of faith flourish. Oftentimes in my prayer, I asked God to disturb me and even send me rains. Because I realized that the more they come, the more I am prepared to meet them with a smile in my heart.

      If my circumstances will bring me to the end of myself because I experience so much pains and sufferings. I thank the Lord, because somewhere out there beyond that rain and windy circumstance, someone will bring with me an umbrella so I could begin and start  with myself in Him.

    After all, the rain of rainy days and the sunshine of sunny days  in our lives are actually good for us.
