The weather in the Midwest, as in many parts of the country, has been very hot (averaging 100 degrees) for the past couple of weeks. Today it's supposed to get up to 104 degrees. We've not had a good rain in at least that long. I literally am living off of my two favorite things in this hot weather ~ raspberry iced tea and ice cream (specifically: Drumsticks). I don't know if I could make it without them....well, I probably could, but it sure helps to have them around!
In all honesty, though, we're in a bad way! Everything is dried up and accidental fires are getting more prevalent. Many areas have burn bans and even fireworks over the fourth of July were banned.
O God, you are my God; I earnestly search for you. My soul thirsts for
you; my whole body longs for you in this parched and weary land where
there is no water. I have seen you in your sanctuary and gazed upon your
power and glory. — Psalm 63:1-2
Have you ever been so thirsty and dry that you literally are parched and weary? The photo above reminds me of how life would be if we didn't have Jesus to go to. What a horrible feeling to be dry, parched, desolate. Oh, how we all thirst for our Lord!
Thank goodness, He's always here for us! All we have to do is go to Him in humble prayer!
