Gentle Rain All Day Long

The weather had been terribly hot for a week already. So, we went out of town to relax by the lake side where the weather is cooler. But as we went back home, we felt too much heat again. Last night, as I felt the heat getting up my head, I prayed. I requested God to send us rain. This morning as I was watering my plants, it started to drizzle. In a little while, the tiny drops turned bigger. I was so delighted. God has answered my prayers. It is now past seven in the evening and the gentle rain has not stopped. We can sleep comfortably tonight even if we don't turn on the air-condition. Thank God. How are your folks! Are you having a good weather?

@m_audrey6788 If your Summer is as hot as ours, you surely will not miss it at all.

Very nice! Enjoy the cooler weather. Here the last few days have been very pleasant as far as I'm concerned. Sadly, our friends in the Caribbean Islands and Florida have gone through a very difficult time and will continue like this for quite a while.

We had the last three days of August very hot, then the rain started and the temperature dropped. We need a sweater inside the house right now.

Hmmm, while we were all sweating you were on your sweaters. I wish I could wear my sweater too.

Everyone is mumbling here, about the non-stop rain, and that we didn't ask for this sort of daily rain, only daily bread.

Was it a non-stop heavy rain? If it is heavy, I would panic.

Our weather here in the north is delightful. I wore a jacket and my sandals to the Y yesterday. funny to see it cool enough for a jacket and still warm enough for sandals. Soon it will be cold here, not looking forward to that but It will be ok, we just have to wear more clothes. Enjoy your comfortable rains....

We can't choose our weather unfortunately but at least we can survive bad weather.

@salonga Me too, but it will come to an end this weekend with thunderstorms in the forecast. No doubt it will be leftover hurricane weather.

@salonga Here, in Ireland, they often call it 'soft rain' which is a nice expression.

Yasss! I'm so thankful for the rains although theyre brought by the typhoon. I actually got sick last week because of the awful heat. Loving the gentle rains now and of course awaiting news of class suspension. Lol

God is really so good as He always grant our requests. Right now here in Cebu, rain comes mostly in the evening after a hot and sunny day.

I miss rain so much. We have dry winters and now they say we might have a drought this summer. I am happy your prayers for rain worked. That is a lovely photo of you and your husband. :)
