Desist from the dichotomy of sun and rain and persist for the kingdom of The Son and His reign. Now the errors of the ages stand to be reversed: the blinding and boundaries begin to be removed. Once again we begin to learn full Love, and the torment of fear gives slowly way to a just and righteous confidence.
In storms, rain has fallen to us; in our deserts, streams have flowed. We have tasted of life's water, and now the sun begins to shine. The Son and all glorious brightness coming. We have seen rain fall on a sunny day, maybe even from a cloudless sky, but with this light, this brightness and glory - rain falls from The Son. From The Son it begins to rain.
The Son, whose very hands moved back the waters from land at the beginning of the world; whose arms filled the treasure-houses of heaven with snow in its stores, and hail into its chambers - reserving them for times of trouble and days of battle and war. The Son, who tied the waters into clouds unrending, and encircled the seas in bounds, now begins to rain.
Open our hearts, shake our depths and let all water flood. Rend the heavens and break storehouses in pieces! Pour your rain down, and your flood up! Write your record upon us: your breath, the water, and blood! And from The Son, Lord, Let it rain!
