Rain in the Desert

10 'Ilm 162 B.E. October 24 - 25, 2005 A.D.

Rain in the desert is always welcome. Even though it floods in Las Vegas when it rains, there are still some of us who welcome the rain and look forward to it. There was a story or tradition I once heard that angels carry each drop of rain to earth. I think this is a wonderful concept. I can just imagine the angels carrying each drop to earth and placing it in the desert. There must be a angels needed carry raindrops to earth. It didn't rain very long and the rain that did fall is drying up, but the time it did rain the wind blew and carried the scent of the rain across the city.

I wonder what type of angels carry raindrops to earth. Are there special angels that have only one job and that job is to carry raindrops to earth? Does each different part of the world have different angels that work in that part carrying raindrops to earth? What do the angels that carry raindrops to earth do when its not raining? Perhaps it is always raining someplace in the world and the angels go where they are needed.
