Embrace the rain

Last night I attended the outdoor U2 concert in Minneapolis. After about three songs, it started pouring rain. Instead of ending the show, Bono and crew relished the moment. The downpour added a certain excitement to the concert, and the rain looked amazing on the video screens.

There's something that can be learned from these talented Irishmen and applied to our lives:  embrace the rain. I have been feeling the rain during these last 11 months of being unemployed, and it's really challenging to embrace it.

But you know what? God shines through broken people -- not perfect ones.
