Almighty God, creator of all that is, restore life back to place of dryness and abandonment, that we would blossom and flourish and rejoice in your goodness towards us, through Jesus our savior, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit in glory forever and ever. Amen.
‘The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad; the desert shall rejoice and blossom; like the crocus it shall blossom abundantly and rejoice with joy and shouting.’ – Isa. 35:1-2
