From Drought to Downpour: Holding On Through Life’s Dry Seasons
Since August, we’ve had just over 5 inches of rain. That’s not just weather—it’s a mirror of what life feels like sometimes. It is the third lowest rain total for that period since readings have been recorded. No question, we are in a severe drought. One day the drought will end and in Texas style we will get an over abundance of rain in a brief period. It’s a good metaphor for life. Each of us goes through drought periods where we wonder if anything good will come our way again. Sometimes our droughts can appear to be endless. Hang in there, your drought, like my South Texas drought, will end. Maybe you’ll have a Texas sized downpour of good news coming at you all at once. Never quit.

Shall take the hidden paths that run
West of the Moon, East of the Sun.”
