The Heat and God's Faithfulness

I've struggled to keep posting my thoughts and experiences over the past two months... sorry to the readers who check up and there are no new posts.

The summer weeks in Texas have been unusually hot... most days over 100 degrees! The heat has brought extreme dryness... no rain for weeks. The plants and grass seem to be panting for just a little moisture. Nothing would be green if not for irrigation. Our A/C cannot seem to keep pace with the heat and yet I constantly ask how people could endure this weather before A/C and sprinklers came to be. I am thankful for being able to drive, work and rest in spaces where the temperature and the water are cool.

Then, as God so often proves His faithfulness to me, I woke early this morning to the sound of thunder in the distance. It is raining this morning. You can almost hear the plants and grass sigh with relief.

Thank you Lord for sending the rain... let me rejoice in your enduring faithfulness.
