Sparks from Israel
Rain
Today was the first day in six months that I saw a drop of rain. I was so happy to see the rain and went out to feel it falling gently on my face. Only in Israel can you really appreciate the prayers for rain we say each day. Outside of Israel nature seems to take its own course without need of man’s prayers. Two weeks ago we took out the Torah scroll and made a special prayer for rain. This week we read from the Torah about Noah and the flood. In other lands everyone talks about the weather, in Israel, we do something about it.
