Smoothies and stuff

Hey guys! How's it going? My life is good . . . really good. (ha ha, that one's for you dad!)
Uh. . . oh ya! I just made a YUMMY smoothie!! It has peaches, berries, milk, ice, and peach yogurt in it. I created it with out a recipe so to you it might sound gross, but it's actually quite. . . delectable. Ha ha, I have never used that word before. That was fun!! And believe it or not, this smoothie has no sugar in it. So the "sugar high" you think I'm on must be some other sort of high. Maybe it's a high off of fruits. :)
Speaking of :), Lauren and I found two scripture smilies today!! The one I found is in Acts 10: 36. It's pretty cool, you can look at it if you want. And it's kinda funny cuz it has it right after it says Jesus Christ (he is Lord of all:) Isn't that cool? Anyway. . .
Today it rained! I was sooo happy! I was walking down to Rachel and Susie Johnson's house after church to get my jacket that I left there, and I got to walk in the rain. It was so peaceful. I love the sound and smell of rain! (I put some "Sounds of Rain" in the playlist at the bottom. It's the very last song on there. Anyway, after retrieving my jacket, I was walking home and I began to think about what rain could symbolize. You might think, "Well duh, do you not ever listen to music? It's like the epitome of sadness, Rachel-the -Dumbo." And I would say, "Actually, I do listen to music and I probably know more songs about rain than you. So HA!!" Lol. Anyway, so I was thinking, "Why is rain always about sadness and misery, when it's so beautiful and peaceful?" So I started to ponder on something happy that it would mean. And I figured it out, so I wrote a song about it. Here it is:

People say that rain is like hard times,
It's gray and dark, there's no light.
Or a reminder of all that won't last,
Weighing down and refusing to pass.

(Chorus)
But as I sit and listen to the rain fall on my window,
I'm reminded of God's love for me.
As I sit and think about all the times that I've been low,
And all the things that I've done wrong you see.
I don't think the rain is a symbol of my pain,
But of all the tears God cries for me.

They tell me that there's no way to get through,
And even if I try, there's nothing I can do.
They say there's no hope or answers for me
But I know that this can't be

Chorus

(Bridge)
I'm hiding in the corner, my head rested on my knees,
I'm crying my heart out in agony.
But as the rain gently falls, I know I'm not alone.
He is there beside me and in His arms, it's me He holds.

As I sit and listen to the rain fall on my window
I'm reminded of God's love for me.
As I sit I can't remember all the times that I've been low,
Or the things that I've done wrong you see.
I know that the rain is not a symbol of my pain,
But of all the tears God cries for me.

All the tears God cries for me.

Lol. I know it's kinda cheesy sounding, but it's really how I feel. So don't laugh!! :D Anyway, I gotta go think up a tune for this song now. So ttyl!!
Love-
Rachel
