“Have you ever been deeply thirsty? Maybe you’ve been on a hike that stretched longer than planned or were travelling and didn’t know where to find safe drinking water, and the memory of thirst is visceral. But I’m wondering more about your spirit. Has your soul ever felt dry, parched? Have you ever felt like you were going through all the motions on the outside, but inside you were empty, inside there were dust storms and a hot dry wind?” -The Rev. Nikky Wood, sermon from Eighteenth Sunday after Pentecost, Fourth Sunday in Creationtide
