For soil that drinks the rain which often falls on it and produces crops useful to those for whose benefit it is cultivated, receives a blessing from God; but if it persistently produces thorns and thistles, it is worthless and close to being cursed, and it ends up being burned. -Hebrews 6:7-8

Let us drink the Bounty, The Water, from Heaven, and like rain nourishing the parched land, I pray, we are transformed into nutrient rich soil, cultivated for God’s use and not our own. Thank You God for never giving up on us. When we produce thorns and thistles, thank you for refining us so that we may be Good like You. Amen.
