The Weatherman

The Weatherman said it was supposed to rain today. He gave it an exact 80% chance of showers. That leaves me with a remaining 20% contingent that it won't. As I watch him point at fronts, refer to dopplers, and fumble with his clicky thing I wonder... "how does God feel about the Weatherman?" "Does he praise him for his efforts or applaud him for his humor?"

There seems to be a mutual, underground feeling of mistrust coupled with our view of him who reports atmospheric conditions. He says 80% and we see the sun shining. He says 10% and the rain pelts our newly washed car. Percentages and promises-what would our morning be without them? There is even a website called "Accuweather.com!" I was sitting in my car, watching the rain attack the pavement as "Accuweather" showed 75 Degrees and cloudy...must be a Weatherman on the other end. I'm not saying they aren't trying, I'm just wondering how often God messes with the thermostat just to throw these guys off.
