The rain held off until the students had left campus. Two hours later, it began. The steady beat of the raindrops on my classroom windows kept me company as I prepared sub plans and tidied up my classroom for tomorrow's sub. While I was certainly warm and dry, I felt uncomfortable there. I longed to be home in my comfy clothes curled up with a mug of coffee or tea and a good book. On rainy days, my favorite place to be is at home. Better yet if all my sons and husband are safely tucked in our home too.
Once home, I deliberated if I should go out in the rain to tonight's bible study. I had missed last week for my son's award dinner at school. I'd hate to miss another week. I thought of the huge gym where we meet for bible study...the noise, the people, the short drive in the rain, the need for an umbrella and a quick dash for dry covering. I wondered how much I could truly concentrate if I didn't really want to be away from home.
I, of course, chose to stay home. I did go out again to pick up Michael from his play rehearsal but then came home and put on my pajamas. I did take some quiet time for peaceful reflection on God's many blessings. And I felt peaceful about my decision.
