Rain Down

--when I was thinking of what title I'll give this time (something about rain), this immediately popped out of my mind. I got this from a title of a song by Delirious.


Yesterday morning I couldn't contain myself and stop thinking for the upcoming event that'll happen the night of that day. The event was a music and entertainment night open to all the youths, young adults and even adults. Being one of the performers, I'm so excited and nervous somehow. During the time of our performance, "this is it! whew!", as I strum the strings on my guitar, "Oh nooooo!!".
That night was the very first time I performed in front of a crowd yet it wasn't good enough. :(
Ahhh, I really can't get over it. I was ashamed. Although it wasn't exactly my fault, but still I'm the one performing and I should have done something on my side.


But today! Although it wasn't too good, but since I can't do something about the situation, I just cherished the moments I encountered . I was stuck under the heavy rain waiting for a jeepney to ride me home. The wind was blowing so strong and it started to flood. My pants was already wet and my feet were soaked in the muddy water. But hey! thanks for the rain. I felt like, somehow, I forgot my worries about what happened yesterday. If the rain didn't stop surely I'll go shower under the rain when I got home, but too bad it didn't happen.


During hard times, worries and difficulties, it won't be bad to pour out our rain. If we have heavy problems, I believe it's difficult to contain it inside of us. But my friend, we have a great big God, bigger than any of our circumstances, and He is our creator. He's the only One who knows us too well. Just pour out your rain of problems, worries and burdens to Him, and in return He'll pour down His rain of guidance, comfort and love. Jesus loves you. ♥

just an additional, here's the lyrics of Rain Down by Delirious:

Rain Down - Delirious?
Looks like tonight, the sky is heavy
Feels like the winds are gonna change
Beneath my feet, the earth is ready
I know its time for heaven's rain, it's gonna rain

yeah,yeah

Cos it's living water we desire
To flood our hearts with holy fire

Rain down all around the world we're singing
Rain down can you hear the earth is singing
Rain down my heart is dry but still I'm singing
Rain down, rain it down on me.

Back to the start, my heart is heavy
Feels like it's time, to dream again
I see the clouds, and yes I'm ready
To dance upon this barren land
Hope in my hands

yeah,yeah

cos it's living water we desire, 
to flood our hearts with holy fire

Rain down all around the world we're singing
Rain down can you hear the earth is singing
Rain down my heart is dry but still I'm singing
Rain down.

Do not shut, Do not shut, Do not shut the heavens
But open up, open up, open up our hearts

Rain down all around the world we're singing
Rain down can you hear the earth is singing
Rain down my heart is dry but still I'm singing
Rain down.

(Rain down)
Give me strength to cross the water
Keep my heart upon Your altar
(rain down)

(rain down)
Give me strength to cross this water
Keep my feet don’t let me falter
(rain down)

Do not shut the heavens
But open up our hearts, open up our hearts

do not shut the heavens
but open up our hearts, open up our hearts.
