Drought
It's hot. Amazing, isn't it? Because it is so very unusual for it to hit 100 in Texas in July.
Ahh. You sense the sarcasm.
We all know it's going to be hot, so why would anyone ever be surprised?
We always pray for rain, but this year is different. We are living in a drought. The groundwaters are drying up, the lakes are incredibly low. We are discouraged and long for deep, drenching rains that will replenish our earth, fill the lakes, cause the underground springs to once again flow.
But what about our spirits? Are they dry as well? Or are they running with rivers of compassion, mercy, and grace?
Do we long for the deep, drenching rains to flood our souls?
Maybe it's time to pray for rain.
