Everytime it rains ... Wisdom from Heaven

"But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.

"For every time it rains, it rains pennies from heaven.... You'll find you're fortune falling all over town, be sure that your umbrella is upside down."-- (Song) Pennies From Heaven

The song "Pennies from Heaven," written by Johnny Burke and Arthur Johnston for the movie Pennies From Heaven, was originally recorded in 1936 by Bing Crosby.  The upbeat song talking about your fortune falling from heaven, is a sweet song. 1

Maybe the writer knew something we know too. That wisdom comes from heaven. I think the kind of wisdom that falls from heaven is also a description of who God is as God. And the wisdom that we collect all over town through bible study, meditation, praise, worship, and prayer helps us to become more like the one whom wisdom comes from, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
