As we walk through the wilderness experiences of life and read the words in Isaiah 35, we catch a prophetic vision for what will happen here, in this very place. We begin to understand, or perhaps remember, that God even now offers spiritual life to us, even when everything around us looks like a desert.

The desert wilderness is always a low, low place on life’s journey but God’s mercy, like water, always flows to the lowest part. Like streams in the desert.
