It would have been so much better if there were a cleansing rain. A rain that didn’t only reveal the filth of the car, but actually cleaned it making its shine and luster show again. Of course we don’t want so much rain that it floods and carries our cars away, just enough to clean our cars and the world around us.
Have you ever noticed how God’s truth is like the rain He created? Sometimes we believe that the dirt (sin) of our lives isn’t obvious to anyone. But then a sprinkle of God’s truth reveals exactly how filthy we really are. We have a choice, we can continue to live our lives of sin, or we can ask Him for His cleansing rain.
His truth convicts us of our condition. What we do with that conviction is up to us. Will we ask for His cleansing rain or will we wait for the flood of His justice to wash us away?
