One rainy afternoon, I was driving along one of the main streets
of town, taking those extra precautions necessary when the roads are wet and slick. Suddenly, my daughter, Sarah, spoke up
from her relaxed position in her seat.
"Dad, I'm thinking of something."
This announcement usually meant she had been pondering some fact
for a while, and was now ready to expound all that her six-year-old mind had discovered. I was eager to hear.
"What are you thinking?" I asked.
"The rain! ;" she began, "is like sin, and the windshield wipers
are like God wiping our sins away."
After the chill bumps raced up my arms I was able to respond.
"That's really good, Sarah."
Then my curiosity broke in. How far would this little girl take
this revelation?
So I asked... "Do you notice how the rain keeps on coming? What
does that tell you?"
Sarah didn't hesitate one moment with her answer: "We keep on sinning,
and God just keeps ! on forgiving us."
I will always remember this whenever I turn my wipers on.In order
to see the Rainbow, you must first endure some Rain.
