Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with unashamed longing:

“I called for a drought on the fields and the mountains, on the grain, the new wine, the oil and whatever the ground produces, on men and cattle, and on the labor of your hands.”
(Haggai 1:11)

There are a lot of things I don’t understand, Jesus.

But I know drought.

I’ve been through long periods of time without

living water.

During those times I’ve learned firsthand what it means to be spiritually dry

thirsty for Your Word
thirsty for closeness
thirsty for You

but somehow unable to connect.

Sometimes it was a habit I was unwilling to let go of.

Sometimes it was a person

somebody I had to have at all costs
somebody whose approval

help
friendship
companionship

meant more to me than You

only to discover when I got what I thought I wanted

I had nothing.

Please.

No more drought.

All I need

is You.
