It’s a dampish kind of day here at WaterBrooks.

All day the air has been filled with a steady mist which occasionally is breaking open into waves of water pouring forth from above.

The hydrangea bush next to the little red office building has bowed her head with the weight of it all, exposing her heart. I just hope her limbs don’t break with the heaviness of the raindrop hidden in each individual petal.

Sue and I have prayed that the Lord would open the windows of Heaven and pour out such a blessing upon this place that has been set apart for His purposes and glory.

He is doing exactly that! I look forward to sharing more of that with you soon.

Today I’m feeling a bit like that hydrangea bush so heavy with heavenly blessing and with light-filled tears ready to fall at any moment. It’s refreshing and overwhelming at the same time.

But the Heavenly Father encourages with these words from Isaiah 55

“As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are My ways higher than your ways
and My thoughts than your thoughts.

For as the rain… comes down from heaven
and does not return there but waters the earth,
making it bring forth and sprout,

giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater,

so shall My Word be that goes out from my mouth;

it shall not return to Me empty,
but it shall accomplish that which I purpose,
and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.

For you shall go out in joy
and be led forth in peace;

the mountains and the hills before you shall break forth into singing,

and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands!”

And I can hear Sue joining them with “Yaaaay!”

Amen!
