God is not weather

Remember how God is not luck? I'd maintain that God is not weather, either. The cold front that shifted, allowing you and yours to have a spotless family reunion, instead flooded someone else's basement. Be grateful to God, address your concerns, but please don't read Him into the movements of atmospheric gases similar to the way other folk read the future in palms and tea leaves.

Compare Him to the force and irresistibility of nature, if you are grasping for an inferior analogy, but don't be fooled. God has the power to create it, which is far more profound.
