Join me in a journey towards surrendering our entire lives unto the God who loves us so much. The drought that has lowered the lakes and water table affects us all, no one escapes. It is so sad to see dried mud in places where giant lakes once stood. The senior parsonage started to sink about two years ago due to this drought, that some say, is two decades in length. Even as I write work is being done at the senior parsonage to drill nineteen pilings into the ground to restore the parsonage to its proper elevations.
Wild fires are now a constant threat.
Interstate 4 is now closed between Highway 27 and Highway 33 due to smoke from muck fires. All this for lack of lots and lots and lots of rain which we need. What is interesting to me is the parallel between the consequences of a drought of water and the similar consequences of a drought of the Spirit. We become tinderboxes that any temptation from the world can ignite into flames of self destructive behavior. It is all so elemental.
