SABRINA

Good Morning!

There are times when we find ourselves in a spiritual "dry" spell. No rhyme or reason, just something that happens to us all. Some call it "depression," others just tired and uninspired.

Sometimes it is like being alone in the desert under a hot sun, nothing to drink or eat, not even knowing what it is we need. We just know that we need SOMEthing.

In those times we often do not even want to pray.  The desert experience, however, can be a POSITIVE thing! Spiritual growth takes place during these dry spells. It is during these times we are reminded of God’s sovereignty and power in our lives. 

Isaiah 51:3 reminds us: “Indeed, the LORD will comfort... the wilderness He will make like Eden, the desert like the garden of the LORD; Joy and gladness WILL be found, Thanksgiving and sound of a melody.”

If today you find yourself in the desert, know that you are not alone.  God... God who knows your innermost needs, walks with you, comforting, loving, and holding you as you turn to him for solace.  And coming out of the desert you will look back realizing you are better for having gone through!  Have a blessed day.
