Don't waste a cloudy day

I looked at the 10-day weather forecast this afternoon, to find that there doesn't appear to be a sunny day until Tuesday. That means lots of clouds for the next four or five days.

But the next time clouds in the sky threaten to make you gloomy, ponder these two truths that the clouds bear witness to:

Your steadfast love, O Lord, extends to the heavens, your faithfulness to the clouds. (Psalm 36:5)

I have blotted out your transgressions like a cloud and your sins like mist; return to me, for I have redeemed you. (Isaiah 44:22)

Clouds remind us of some pretty precious things. God is faithful. He has blotted out your transgressions and redeemed you. So don't be grouchy when the day is filled with them!
