Reassurance

As I lie in bed early this morning, looking out on the cool morning blanketed in ominous grey clouds, I was thinking it was a good morning to sleep in.
Suddenly, the highest peak of the neighbors two story house burst into bright orange. I blinked my eyes, thinking they were playing tricks on me, but then I realized that it was sunshine.
The sun had sent that one single ray through the clouds as a bit of reassurance that he is still there, and that on top of these clouds is a beautiful sunrise. The clouds converged and hid the light, and within seconds thunder rumbled acoss the sky, the clouds asserting their dominance once again. Even through the rain, I could still feel the warmth of that one ray of sunshine.
