It Rained In My Field


A little rain fell in my field today and quenched the thirsty ground.  I couldn’t help but feel blessed when I stopped and thought that I was born in a place where I can drink clean water from the tap or go to the refrigerator and eat anything I want…any time I want.   I have a roof over my head and a dry warm bed in which to sleep.  All this is a result of nothing I did.  All this was given to me totally undeserved.  Everything I have from my toes to my teeth to my talent is a result of God’s grace…and then…there is the most gratuitous gift of all…salvation.

Dear Lord Jesus
Please give me a little latitude
When it comes to my attitude
For it’s not just a platitude
When I praise You for your magnitude.
Amen.
