Dry

Beware of what seems barren, empty and dry
don’t count it off as dead when from there He can breathe life
from the dust we were made out of nothing we see
and from the dust He still makes beautiful things.
Don’t be disturbed when your heart shatters
for only broken things that are restored can grasp what really matters
what seems like a thorn that will not cease
is being shaped into a beautiful thing.
The desert may be all that you see
but behold there is an oasis, a life giving stream
not around the corner but in the desert where you stand
the Living Water is walking with you through the sand
The journey may seem long, dark and unknown
but oh the treasures He longs to bestow
if only our eyes can be opened to see
that there in the dusty desert He is walking with me.
