Heavenly Father thank You for the rain! It may seem little to others but California has been experiencing drought for months now. We even fasted as a stake twice (if I remember it correctly) to ask for showers. We (the people of Cali, or maybe just us in SF) can't wash our cars ourselves (bring it to a car wash), can't water the lawn and we're even encouraged to let it brown.
I guess the saying "you never know what you got until it's gone" is quite true for me. Coming from the Philippines and then Hawaii, rain showers and even thunderstorms are normal so not having rainfall was odd. We even saw news reports of floods and storms in those two locations and we're just an ocean away from them so one may wonder bakit kami wala paring ulan? I took for granted the important sustenance it provides.
Above all, yesterday's rain reminded me that prayer and fasting really work. The fasting we did as a stake was done few months ago and only yesterday was it granted, but it was granted. Sometimes we may think that our supplications are not answered just because we didn't get it at the time we want but Heavenly Father's timing is and will ALWAYS be better than ours.
