Rain Will Make the Flowers Grow

I love the song "A Little Fall of Rain" from Les Miserables.  The lyrics in the title of this post "Rain will make the flowers grow" doesn't just mean what it says.  It symbolizes much more than rain and flowers.  The rain represents trials and pain, and the flowers can represent all of the good that comes from trials.  Things like becoming closer to God, or the fact that through trials He replaces the sand we built our houses on with rock.  The rain may hurt, but in the end all things are made right and we are made strong through Christ.
