A Watered Garden

A Watered Garden

'...And the Lord shall guide you continually and satisfy you in drought and in dry places and make strong your bones. And you shall be like a watered garden and like a spring of water whose waters fail not...' - Isaiah 58: 11

I'm ever aware of how God sustains us despite our circumstances. Even in dry places and in drought, He will satisfy us and make us strong. We shall be like a watered garden and a spring whose waters never fail. I believe this can be in the physical, emotional and spiritual realms. Even in times of financial lack and hardship, God provides us with our daily bread. And those times when we feel a spiritual barrenness or emotional barrenness, God can sustain us and water our souls to refresh us and to restore us.

We can sometimes feel as though we are in a desert – lips dry and dying of thirst. God comes and waters us with His word to quench our thirst and bring the needed relief. If you are feeling this way right now, come to Jesus so He can pour over you the living water of His word.

Wash over me with your living word And quench me O Lord, from my dying thirst!
