Dew

Wow, it's been awhile since I've been over here which is a bad on my part cause a lot of wonderful things have been happening. So, much so that there wouldn't be enough space or time for me to tell it all. But I will share one of the many ways that God has found to keep me sane.

Last weekend we sang a song during church service that says "Like the dew in the morning, gently rest upon my heart..." Yesterday morning I woke up singing that song but then this morning I started singing "You're All I Need To Get By" by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell. I sang the first line of the song and I had to smile when I got to the part that begins, "Like sweet morning dew..." I wondered why I was filled with this urge to sing songs with the word dew. Then I realized that I've been so preoccupied with the cares of life and worries and concerns that I haven't been resting, in the spiritual sense, but it's amazing to me that God can use something as simple as dew to make me smile and renew my strength and my faith. I looked up the definition for dew this morning and was amazed at one of its meanings. It said that dew is, "something moist, fresh, pure, or renewing". Not typically a meaning I would associate with dew, well, except the moist part. I see now how much like dew God really is (without the moisture of course). Needless to say, after today, I'll never see dew the same way.
