Little Presents


 “I would seek unto God...which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvelous things without number: who giveth rain upon the earth, and sendeth waters upon the fields.” Job 5:8 - 10  

Rain, sometimes called the gift of God, came in abundance this past summer.   In August, we had three times as much rain as usual, 11 inches compared to the average three.  I marvel at God’s wisdom in sending His blessings.

One inch of rain falling on a square mile will weigh 1,650,501,280 pounds.  What would happen if it fell in one heap?  Annihilation of all living things.  But our merciful Father sends His blessings, which He heaps upon us, in such a subtle way that we do not realize the grand weight of their significance. We sometimes do not even realize He is sending them. But they are there, millions of little love gifts which if added together would be more than we could hold.
