Before the trip, their lawn looked good—green, lively,
lush. But upon returning, they found the yard yellow, droughty, dry. Why?
June’s heat beat down with nobody around to water the flowers and grass. The
good news? This caused them to consider how to avoid the situation
the next time they take a summer trip.
The Word of God is as important to our spiritual
well-being as watering is to the flora. We need to read the Word every day.
Some prefer to read in the morning; others prefer to read in the evening. But
the important thing is that we regularly read and heed the Bible. If we want to
flourish for our Father, we will take time to read His Word.
