Prayer for Drought

“Jesus said, ‘People soon become thirsty again after drinking this water.
But the water I give them takes away thirst altogether.” John 4:13

Lord God, spring of living water,
give to those who live in dry and barren lands
the vision needed to see them as they might be,
the skill and resources needed to irrigate them efficiently,
the equipment needed to make them fertile,
and, more than these,
the spiritual insight needed to recognize
that in you alone the thirsty may find true satisfaction.
In Jesus' name. Amen.
