Rainy seasons like we all know can be very inconveniencing howbeit the agricultural and natural advantages that cannot be overlooked which reduces famine and promotes good harvest of agricultural products.
In Africa, we tend to look forward to rainy seasons a lot because of Africa's survival depends on agriculture from primitive farming to commercial farming which utilises more technologies to increase agricultural produce.
The rainy season in Nigeria, a prominent country in West Africa usually starts from the months of June – September. This years rain in my own opinion should be termed “Showers of blessings”. The rain this year was super fantastic, and residents of Lagos, Nigeria has been awed by the downpour of heavy rain that continued for days almost totaling Seven (7) days and if not more. Before this continuous rain commenced, I washed some set of clothes and waited for this rain to be over before they could get dried up by a promising sun that we all patiently waited for.
Roads, schools, markets and houses were flooded with this heavy downpour of rain. What a wonderful God we serve, imagine if it had rained continuously, humanity on this part of the earth would find it difficult to adapt.
On a glorious destined day, a shinning and hot beaming sun lighted up the sky with so much glory, and power reminding us that an omnipotent God still controlled the weather and science cannot really be accurate in its weather forecast. While riding back home on a public transport bus, I overheard a woman complaining of the suddenly hot sunny weather, which made me ponder if human beings can ever be satisfied with whatever that was being offered to them for free.
In the Bible – Exodus 16:4, God rained down manna for the Israelites to feed on after delivering them from the Egyptians, yet they still murmured and complained about the manna Numbers 11:1-9.
Life is a free gift of nature, awarded by the Supreme Being of nature. Be grateful for life, weather, and the everlasting free gifts of nature. time is a commodity for the living and a resourceful tool of nature.
We thank God for a wonderful rainy season which heralds the promised divine showers of blessings.
