Whatever the Weather

No matter the forecast, weather can remind us of God's presence:

  • When it's sunny, remember that Jesus is the light of the world (John 8:12)
  • When it's cloudy, remember that God often spoke to and guided his people from a cloud (Exodus 13:21-22)
  • During a thunderstorm, remember the thunder and lightning when God beckoned Moses to Mount Sinai (Exodus 19:16)
  • When it rains or snows, remember that God's Word serves his purpose just as precipitation does (Isaiah 55:10-11)
  • When it's windy, remember thta "a wind from God" came at Creation (Genesis 1:2), and God's HOly Spirit arrived at Pentecost like a mightywind (Acts 2:2)
