A Deluge of Dew

A lion's roar can be heard up to 5 miles away.  Imagine the ruckus of the King as He roars out his anger and frustration.  I imagine that every breath is caught and every heartbeat flutters, within hte realm of his Kingdom,  at the sound of that roar. We can paint a picture of God that is all love and grace and mercy - and He is just that.  But the other side of Jesus, of God, is one that can not tolerate sin and unrighteousness.  He is judge and vindicator, He is head of the Angel Armies.  Power and might wrapped up in grace and mercy.
I love the image of His favor here, saturating dew, that nourishes, permeates and soaks.  There is never a "deluge of dew".  You never hear a weather report that speaks of "Dew Alerts", or school closings because there was, simply, too much dew to get going.   But, the dew soaks the earth, and permeates everything that it touches. This permeating love and favor is what is available from our King of Kings- our Jesus.
I pray today that we find a "Deluge of dew" to splash in, as we stretch out our adopted hands to the heavens, and sing praises to His name!
