Focus on the Family prays for a blessing on Obama
Church Marketing Sucks reports that the political arm of Focus on the Family, Focus on the Family Action (a registered 501-C4), is asking folks to pray for rain during Obama’s acceptance speech in Denver.
While rain sounds like a horrible way to kick off a campaign, a co-worker suggests that she’s always heard that rain is a blessing. After a dry spell here in North Texas – I can definitely say that today’s rain is a blessing.
When you think about it, how often do we sing songs and read Scripture where folks praying for God’s blessings to flow like rain?
Even the Hebrew Talmud says, “The day when rain falls is as great as the day on which heaven and earth were created.”
Perhaps Focus on the Family is praying for something they may not really want.
Of course – I’ve found that true in my life as well so many other times 
.
What other ways/times have you found rain to be a blessing?
