Rain falls like tears from the sky, marking the sadness in our hearts.  We are reminded just how unable we are to tide the course of Nature.  We are ultimately at its mercy, and perhaps that is how it should be.  We are saved from our own hubris, and stand in awe and reverence in the face of a power greater than ourselves.  It is Majesty and Mystery.  By definition, it is God, and we stand humbled.  We are grateful.  Blessed Be, and Amen.
