The timing was right as the warnings went off
in my head that day.
I didn’t pay attention to the danger that was coming my way
for I didn’t think anything bad would happen when my luck has been up lately.
But, the sunny day soon turned into a cloudy day and the rain poured so hard.
One second I’m walking on a beautiful day and the next I’m running in the storm that I didn’t see coming.
I’m soaking wet and I just can’t seem to get to the house and I know standing under this tree will do me no good.
I stand there and send up a prayer hoping the storm would break and I can get inside and be safe.
And, then a miracle happens the storm just goes away and the sun comes back out and I run home.
To dry off and I’m thankful that God’s timing always seems to come at the right time in my life.

That’s what the weather is like where I’m at — sunny one moment, pouring rain the next.
