:: Parched (or Garden Girl)


"O God, you are my God, I seek you, my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water." Psalm 63:1

Sometimes the Lord whispers His word to me in everyday life. In one instance, He communicated the state of my dry spirit by drying out my mouth as I sang for a worship service.

This happened to me over three times in a row, and a verse came to my head each time: Psalm 63:1. So naturally, I waited about three more weeks to read Psalm 63:1. When I did, it was like water was poured into my heart; sweet, refreshing water, the kind that makes you realize you've been drinking salt water. I realized I've been starved of encountering the beauty and refreshment that is friendship with the Holy Spirit. 

I believe the Lord has showed me it's time to move into a new season: Garden Girl. I want to tend the garden of my heart. I want to water my spirit with the Beauty of Jesus.



"A garden locked is my sister, my bride, a garden locked, a fountain sealed." Song of Solomon 4:12 

"Awake, O north wind, and come, O south wind! Blow upon my garden..." Song 4:16
