A Little Rain Never Hurt Anybody
Spring has arrived and we are springing forward in life. Yet in all of this we will experience some “rain” in our lives. It may feel bad, look bad and cause us to shut in but this is GOOD for us because it allows us to replenish. So take the time within, during this rain to cover yourselves with the umbrella of God’s love and seek His strength. We go through so many instances and occurrences in our lives and we hope for a better day and hope for some “spring” in our lives. We long for some hope, some light or some release.

This man was in so much pain from life that he became mentally ill to the point that many unclean spirits entered him. This man was left alone, tortured and inflicting more pain through cutting using sharp stones on his body. This pain caused him to run and live in a tomb. This pain caused him to be bound in chains until he was so enraged that he broke the chains only to bring himself further harm. He needed to be set free and that is what Jesus did for him.
