SEE CLEARLY

October 12, 2025

Johnny Nash mentored a young Bob Marley, co-writing songs after moving to Jamaica and immersing himself in reggae.

His biggest hit was

                I can see clearly now, the rain is gone.

                I can see all the obstacles in my way.

                Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind.

Sunday, October 12, I’m preaching on “I Can See Clearly Now” from Psalm 8.  We’ll look at “See God’s Nature Overcome God’s Enemies,” verses 1-2; and “See Your Role in Nature,” verses 3-9.

Many people are blind to God’s creative hand.  Let’s take time to see what God created, how he continues to work in creation, and how he will work.  And let’s see what our place is in his plan.  Also, let’s claim victory over Satan’s attempts to rob us of joy amidst God’s beautiful world.

I appreciate all your prayers for Nancie, me and the church.  Let’s continue to pray for miracles from the creative hand of God!

Love,

Jim Meek
