Hey Prescott Aiga! (Aiga is Samoan for family)

I hope you are doing well. This past long weekend has been so refreshing for me as we prepare finish off this term strong. As most of you know already, I work across both Prescott Primary Northern and our sister school, Prescott College Southern. So, I often have some enjoyable drives down to Morphett Vale. On those drives, I enjoy listening to music and just jamming out by myself in my car. I often wonder what other drivers think of me when driving past while I'm belting out a Justin Bieber song with some questionable facial expressions.

I often listen to my worship playlist on Spotify and I leave it open for suggestions from Spotify. And a song that came up on the list was a song called, "Tin Roof", by Chris Tomlin and Blessing Offor. The lyrics say:

Maybe the sun don't set
And the waters don't rise
Maybe we don't forget
How to laugh like a child
Maybe in the promised land
We're all made for what we do
Oh, but I pray heaven is like
Rain on a tin roof
Washing away
Washing away my sorrows
Giving me faith
Giving me faith to follow
A new tomorrow
They tell me in the promised land
There are mansions to choose
Oh, but I pray heaven is like
Rain on a tin roof

When it rains, I feel very comfortable knowing that I am safe from the rain, nice and warm is one of the best feelings ever. This song reminds me of the comfort that God gives us with the promise of heaven. Through all the storms and tribulations in our lives, God gives us this comfort through all of it. God offers this for all of us and all we have to do is accept it.

I hope this serves as an encouragement for you all.

Blessings,
Pr Mal
