The Shadow of a Great Rock in a Thirsty Land


When I spoke on the phone with my daughter Jacqueline, she shared what she had been reading in her devotions.  In Isaiah 32, it talks about the king and rulers. Verse 2 says, “Each one will be like a shelter from the wind and a refuge from the storm, like streams of water in the dessert and the shadow of a great rock in a thirsty land.”   Jacqueline said she wants to be like that, and so do I. 
God certainly fits that description.  I want Him to be so in control in my life that His great love flows out of me.  I want to be a comfort, a refresher, and a person others can come to for peace and safety.  That is only possible to the extent that I allow God to be in control.
