Our Heavenly Father Sendeth Rain on the Just and on the Unjust


It's been cold and rainy the past few days but I enjoy it.

Today, when I stopped at the post office on the way home from work, I snapped this photo.

The sky was pretty.

And I was reminded of the following passage spoken by the Lord Jesus Christ:

Matthew 5

43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.

44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?

47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?

48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
