Songs That Bless: Livin' in the Rain

 

 

 

OK, I confess. In case you haven't already guessed as much by the frequency of their inclusion in this newsletter, Jeff & Sheri Easter are one of my very, very favorite gospel duets. I'm convinced this delightful, down-to-earth, devoted husband-and-wife team, while most often categorized as Gospel Bluegrass, is capable of performing absolutely anything -- and doing so with glory and grace.

This song is really special to me. No matter what I'm going through at any given time, "Livin' in the Rain" reminds me how spoiled I actually am, on a spiritual level. I truly live beneath a rain of blessings. Truthfully, don't we all? Yes, we have our trials and go through hard times. But I have yet to see the righteous forsaken, or His seed begging for bread. Our critical needs are always met, and along with them, most of us have our share of wants supplied as well. In the words of yet another gospel great, "God is so good to me! I can't complain."

I've been livin' in the rain, my friends. Come on out an enjoy it with me. No umbrellas allowed. Step right in, get your bare feet wet, and enjoy the beautiful presence of God, showering His beloved children with good things, day after day...after day.
