After dropping off my girlfriend at home i was sitting in my car just watching the rain pour down.  I sat there for quite a while not really sure why, the rain was just speaking to me.  Maybe it was the fact that it was raining in Chicago on December 31st that had me frozen in my car, but nothing mattered, I couldnt move.  After about a half hour of sitting there writing and praying and just being with God a lot of things started to make sense to me.  More or less flooded with sympethetic fallicies i couldnt help but think that the Angels were crying.  But why what in my life could be causing this?(obviously because our first thoughts are almost always about ourself that I was thinking it was about me)  I quickly pass up the idea that it could be for any of the horrid things going on around the world.  All I could seem to do is focus on me, me , and me.  Then it finally clicked, I am finally walking with God, I am no longer jumping from footprint to footprint trying not to get my shoes dirty.  Ive kicked off my shoes and have let the mud squeeze between my toes as i finally am along side Jesus getting my feet and hands dirty.  I know you're asking yourself "where does the rain come into play?".  No matter how dirty I get doing the Lords work, there will always be a rain storm around the corner ready to wash me clean.    Knowing that, how can I not always be elbow deep in the Lords work? How can i sit and selfishly think of me?  My eternity is decided!  Its time to get out of the bubble that I am living in and bring the Lord to the places and people that are in need.  Look out Satan there is a new warrior in the Army of Truth

Sitting here trying to cram everything that the Lord taught me today into a one sentence "moral of the story" just cant be done however all I hear in my head is a song that I've known for quite some time

What can wash away our sins?
What can make us whole again?
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can wash us pure as snow?
Welcomed as the friends of God
Nothing but Your blood
Nothing but Your blood King Jesus
