Singing In the Rain

There is great strength in be able to praise through the storms of life.
Life is not without our sorrows and storms but it can be filled with joy, rest and peace even in the middle of the trails. It is not how much we can “sweat it out’ during our trials that develops strength in us. It is about being in the middle of a storm and keeping your peace.
The song singing in the rain, was not about a gloomy person trying to get out of the rain.

In the movie, the actor is dancing, twirling his umbrella and skipping along with the water all over and the clouds grey.Consider the lyrics to this popular song it comes from a secular movie but could easily be a worship song -

A clarion call to our soul to rise up and praise the Lord.

I'm singing in the rain Just singing in the rain
What a glorious feelin'I'm happy again.
I'm laughing at clouds So dark up above
The sun's in my heartAnd I'm ready for love
Let the stormy clouds chase Everyone from the place
Come on with the rain I 've a smile on my face
I walk down the laneWith a happy refrain
Just singin',Singin' in the rain
I'm singin' and dancin' in the rain!
I'm dancin' and singin' in the rain...
Why am I smiling
And why do I sing?
Why does SeptemberSeem sunny as spring?
Why do I get upEach morning and start?
Happy and head upWith joy in my heart
Why is each new taskA trifle to do?
Because I am livingA life full of you.

********I love these additional lyrics I found on the web.Why is my heart full of joy?

Because I am living a life full of you.
And that is the key..Living a life centered on the Lord, will keep you singing in the rain.

"I will sing to You today, Out of the depths of my being, shall my voice raise to You.In You is my strength, my hope and my delight"
