Springs in the desert.  That’s what you’ve given me LORD.  In this dry and lingering season, You have been so kind, so faithful, to refresh me along the way.  It seems I’ve been here quite a long while, in the midst of this desert place. When I feel I am most alone and weary, I hear You say “I see” “I know” and Your tender, intimate graces confirm it – springs in the desert.  These are truly refreshment for my soul, encouragements to endure.  Gifts only an intimate, loving God can give. Unwrap-able, yet powerful to energize with new life, even change the course a life.  These are good gifts, from a good Father and I am so very grateful.  Thank You Dad!
