Day 147.  It actually rained today.  Not a lot, but it was rain.  It has been months since we have seen drop of rain.  The river is dry, the lakes are dry, and I heard some ranchers this morning talking about their wells going dry.  It seems we may be headed to another dust bowl, or perhaps becoming a desert.  We will pray for more rain, enough rain to replenish this thirsty land.  I guess I'm looking for something to ease the sorrow of this day.  Today, Friday 12/14/12, a man walked into an elementary school in Connecticut and killed 26 people.  Twenty of them were children.  As more of the story comes out, it only gets worse.  I can not imagine the hurt that those parents and families are going through tonight.  If this country ever needed another spiritual outpouring, it is now.  Lord send the rain, or better yet, come quickly.
