Happy Monday,
Thirsty
Matthew 5:6
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filled.
Texas like many states is parched. The grass is dying and many of us are praying for rain. Which should make us ponder. How often do we cry to God for help living in righteousness?
Psalm 42:1-3
New King James Version
BOOK TWO
Psalms 42–72
Yearning for God in the Midst of Distresses
To the Chief Musician. A [a]Contemplation of the sons of Korah.
42
As the deer [b]pants for the water brooks,
So pants my soul for You, O God.
2
My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.
When shall I come and [c]appear before God?
3
My tears have been my food day and night,
While they continually say to me,
“Where is your God?”
In these last days may we hunger and thirst after God. May we seek to live in His divine will. There are so many things around us that seek to distract us from what is important, such as our relationship with Christ.
I pray that God brings us physical rain and blesses us with much-needed spiritual rain, in these times of uncertainty.
