Yay, yay
Another gray day
Time to laugh
And time to play
Time to read
And time to pray
Yay, yay
Another gray day!

The sound of the rain began in the wee hours of the morning. How easy it is to sleep being lulled by the incessant patters of rain on the roof.
Opening the blinds at first light, my eyes confirm that it is another gray day. To some, this may mean gloom, but to me, it is my heart’s delight. Especially on a Saturday with no other plans.
Another gray day means time to read while my favorite music plays in the background. I only need to pause while I wash the week’s clothes or unload the dishwasher.
Another gray day means more time to play. More time for snuggles with a red-headed sweetie-pie.
Another gray day means time to slow down and pray and purposefully and deliberately reconnect with my Creator. Unrushed.
Yay, yay, for another gray day.

I used to think my reasons for liking the rain was because I grew up on the farm, but I like our reasons much better.
Farmers were able to rest because plowing, planting and weeding was not possible in the rain. I liked that idea, but in my youth, I did not see the need to focus on God and family.
Should be “your reasons”, not our reasons…
You have seriously just changed the way I look at rainy days!
If only we could teach our children to love quiet times–times when they can regroup and re-think. Psa 127:2–“It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.”
Oh yes!!! I’m sure it would make a huge difference
Truth!
Awww! Hope that’s a good thing! 🙂
It is a great thing!
