I’m out here in Arizona, speaking for a Cru event. I love the desert; I love everything it symbolizes. As I walk on a trail early this morning, I think about the verse where God says He can makes the desert lush. Think of Psalm 107: He turns a desert into pools of water, a parched land into springs of water or Isaiah 35: The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad; the desert shall rejoice and blossom like the crocus; it shall blossom abundantly and rejoice with joy and singing.
When thinks look bleak, dry, unfruitful, and challenging, God’s work appears more powerfully. You know it’s Him. You know it’s supernatural.
