Thoughts for the Quiet Hour - August 24
I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing. —Ezekiel 34:26
What is thy season this morning? Is it the season of drought? Then that is the season for showers. Is it a season of great heaviness and black clouds? Then that is the season for showers. “As thy days so shall thy strength be.” “I will give thee showers of blessing.” The word is in the plural. All kinds of blessings God will send. All God's blessings go together, like links in a golden chain. If He gives converting grace, He will also give comforting grace. He will send “showers of blessings.” Look up to-day, O parched plant, and open thy leaves and flowers for a heavenly watering. —Charles H. Spurgeon
