Isaiah 35:1
1 The desert and the parched land will be glad;
the wilderness will rejoice and blossom.

Lonely places can be beautiful. It is not uncommon for those seeking the Lord to go out in the desert. This is a popular place to gather your thoughts and focus. Yet, the desert is also a place to see the beauty of God in the wind sweeping over the sand and the flowers coming out of the cacti. Just avoid the ATV’s and bring plenty of water!
