Rain? Of everything to be thankful for, why rain? Why not something far more important, like God or our salvation?
Well, I was going to start with one of them, but rain has been on my mind a lot. Probably because it hasn't stopped all day.
The weather is one of the things I tend to grumble about the most and not see anything wrong in doing so. It's a typical conversation starter.
'Hasn't the weather been awful lately?'
'Oh, I know. All this rain, you wouldn't think it's the summer.'
But just stop for a moment and think. Where would I be without the rain?

- Dead plants...
- ...which means no photosynthesis...
- ...which means no oxygen. Which means we die.
- No water in the reservoirs...
- ...which means no water in the taps. Which means we die.
This doesn't mean I'm not going to feel disappointed next time I look out the window on a day I'd been hoping for a walk/BBQ/fill in the blank. I'm sure I will.
It just means perhaps I should stop and think next time I start complaining about rain to someone.
