“You would not cry if you knew that by looking deeply into the rain you would still see the cloud.”

“And look into space; you shall see Him walking in the cloud, outstretching His arms in the lightning and descending in rain.”

“But you knew there would always be the spring, as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person had died for no reason.”

“She didn't mind a little rain. At least no one would see her cry.”

“She sat on the dock at the lake and watched the clouds thicken. She wished it would rain hard and long and clear everything away. Rain never came when you asked for it.”

“And if you would know God, be not therefore a solver of riddles.Rather look about you and you shall see Him playing with your children.And look into space; you shall see Him walking in the cloud, outstretching His arms in the lightning and descending in rain.You shall see Him smiling in flowers, then rising and waving His hands in trees.”
