As I looked out the window at the yellowing grass and the hills rolling back, I thought of the drought that is almost over but still lingers and the study my family is doing on revival from Hosea . The Spirit works as He will and does accomplish what He wills. And part of what He wills is that we be involved preparing for His work. Hosea uses several images, the most obvious and powerful one being that of the marriage relationship and His pursuit of us. But there is also this rain-farmer-ground-crop image. I put my thoughts about it into a poem that you can read by clicking on Preparing for Rain
