Psalm 63:1 “O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water.”
Boy has it been hot and dry here in North Louisana! Every day I look at the 10-day forecast and weather radar and hope for some rain, but for the past couple of weeks there has been none. But there is hope. The forecast for tomorrow and the day after is 50% chance of rain each day.
Our recent weather reminded me of the verse in Psalm 63 when David was out in the wilderness running for his life. But it wasn’t just his body that was thirsting - within his soul he had a thirst for God. We can all sometimes get into that same condition. And the remedy is always the same – reaching out to God. He is there ready and willing to fulfill the desires of our hearts. So if you are in a “dry and thirsty” place in your life, go to God’s well and drink freely.
