A soft gentle rain began and continued throughout the day. It was the kind of rain you could comfortably walk in. I wrote "Spring Rain" with the desire to draw the listener in to this gentle rain of God's love. So many people are going through challenges and need God's love to bring them safely through to the other side.
The Lord led me to this Scripture as I searched for the title to this song.
Hosea 6:3
"Oh, that we might know the Lord!
Let us press on to know him.
He will respond to us as surely as the arrival of dawn
or the coming of rains in early spring.”
I was playing the piano in a hotel lobby one afternoon, when a couple walked in. It was obvious that they were having a heated argument. Moments later, the man stomped off leaving his wife weeping on the couch. I felt impressed to play Spring Rain and before it was over, the man returned in an attitude of repentance and forgiveness. They sat there quietly soaking in the gentle spring rain of God's peace as I played.
As you listen to Spring Rain, let God's peace "rain" gently upon you. Jesus is the Prince of Peace. His peace is enduring and goes beyond understanding.
