    I am reminded of the song from the Frozen movie, when Elsa sings, let it go!  A part of the lyrics says: “Let it go, let it go.  I am one with the winds and sky.  Let it go, let it go, you’ll never see me cry.  Here I stand and here I...

    How amazing is it to hear the sound of rain on the roof?  When I hear the rain, I always get the feeling of renewal, of starting afresh, and above all, I know that every drop is a blessing from the Lord. Whilst standing at the window, looking at the raindrops falling on...
