Isaiah 35 - When the land is parched

The desert and the parched land will be glad;
the wilderness will rejoice and blossom. 
Like the crocus, it will burst into bloom;
it will rejoice greatly and shout for joy. 
The glory of Lebanon will be given to it, 
the splendor of Carmel and Sharon; 
they will see the glory of the Lord,
the splendor of our God. (Isaiah 35:1, 2)

Dear Father,

These children will face times of dryness in their lives, when their souls are parched and weary. I pray in those times that you quench their spiritual thirst with your presence and your goodness. May they then experience your joy as they burst forth from that dryness into regained full bloom as they look to your glory and your splendor.


Amen
