Purple Rain

What an awesome God we serve!  He has allowed us another day, and I could not be more excited about what this day holds!  If you could see what I see, you would stop what you are doing at this moment and give God the praise! Your battle is already won!  Smile about that, and oh yeah, it’s Friday!

Good day to you all!  If you are reading this you are in the midst of a blessing!  Rely not on your own understanding, but lean on the Lord and what He is able to do!

For ages the color purple has been associated with royalty. The fine robes that were stitched for European kings were dyed using the purple ink that the octopus ejects when it is in trouble.  The dye was so expensive and rare, only royalty could afford to use it.  The color purple is unique in the way that it takes red, which is a hot color, and combines with blue which a cool color.  The color purple is often used to signify love.  I think of what a beautiful image it would be to be caught up in a purple rain, because you would be drenched in love, and the impending hue that would be left on your being would give off the glow of royalty.  God’s blessings are like a Purple Rain.

Dear Reader I want you to be showered by God’s blessings.  I want you to know what it feels like to walk in a Purple Rain.  It is important to know who you are, and it is important to know whose you are.  You are the child of a God that cares about your every step and wants to restore you and mend your broken heart.  He wants to breathe life into your dreams that you feel have died before their time.  Yes dear reader times are changing and its time that we reach out for something new.  Reach out to God because He is already reaching out to you.  I want you to live each day with joy in your heart.  Don’t let anyone bring you down.  I told God a long time ago, “I don’t care where you go, I don’t care what you do, I don’t care my Lord, just take me with you.”  So when you feel like you can’t make it, Dear Reader don’t let your doves cry, and don’t turn a shade of computer blue.  I want you to keep looking up at the Purple Rain that is coming down on you.  You are His, and He loves you! 

You are beautiful, loved and blessed
