Dry

It's been a long six weeks. Sickness really wears me out. I think the hardest part-- even more than the sleeplessness and fatigue-- is being away from my church family. I am SO THANKFUL that our building is closer now because Shorty and I have each been able to make at least one meeting a week, but still, that's slim pickings.... =( It's also so much harder for me to get my devotions in. So yeah, I'm feeling dry right now.

A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands. My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food, and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips, when I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the watches of the night; for you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy. My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.
Psalms 63:1-8
