We're not sure why...but for some reason, Aila thinks that every time it rains, Jesus is dying on the cross.
Again.
I started this blog 17 years ago, back when most people said "What's a Blog?" (and before Facebook!) Well, I'm still here maintaining this blog when I can, simply to continue archiving all the memories that I have invested here. :)
We moved to Ottawa in August of 2007, but I've spent the previous years of my life in a city called Winnipeg (Ever heard of it?) I've been a worship leader for over 33 years, and I often say that "I don't really like music...I just love worship"
If you like, you click on the CD in the right column of this blog, and hear clips of my album "Only One Love".
And work? I have a small graphic design company (www.pearcreative.ca) specializing in Book Cover Design and marketing materials. I love love LOVE my job!
I share my adventures with my incredible husband of 25 years (Jason) and our two gorgeous daughters aged 16 and 19.

Maybe she is more profoundly theological than you imagine. If we take John's claim that Jesus is the lamb slain before the foundation of the world (Rev 13:8) then perhaps the cross is an event outside of time. Just as through the sacraments we are made present to (as the events are presented to us) the reality of God's saving work, which is why we partake in the memory with physical elements, perhaps the rain mediates that reality for your daughter.
This also fits as a correlation between judgment (flood narrative; John's theology of the cross). I'd encourage a resurrection connection with the ending of a rainstorm (flood narrative; theology of promise and hope).
And of course I know a great school where she can hone these budding theological skills. :-)
