Finding Water For The Summer Drought

For my wife and I, this past week has been exhausting.  Family has come in from out of town and we have faithfully been playing the part of host.  This has meant non-stop touring of the city, more food than a person can handle, and zero time to stop and think.  In many ways, it feels a lot like Lent (replace touring with church services).  However, as busy as things got then, we never felt worn out.  There was always that dimension to our activity that gave energy.  During this lull in the liturgical and school year, perhaps it is a good time to ask where we are each drawing our strength and joy from at the moment.
