Rain Rain Go Away!

This spring, on the very same day that my parents set up a new trampoline for my boys, it started to rain.  And rain.  And rain.  It rained for over a week and the temperature was hardly above freezing.  Not exactly trampoline weather.  My kiddos spent a lot of time staring morosely out the window at the trampoline and wishing away the sogginess.  We woke up on yet another wet morning, looked out the window and then headed to the breakfast table.  I suggested that we pray that it stops raining... and we did.  Silas and Caleb couldn't wait to look out the window in anticipation of God's answered prayer and as soon as breakfast was over, they ran to the window to check. 

"God answered!", Caleb shouted in wonder and amazement.

"Yeah.  It's SNOWING", Silas retorted. 

Remember to pray specifically!  Specific prayers bring specific answers!
