Why does your soul feel so dry when you're surrounded by people telling you God should be enough? The psalmist's honesty cuts through the pretense: sometimes our thirst for God feels more like drowning in His absence, and our memories of His presence only sharpen the pain of His seeming distance. Lent doesn't promise to quench this thirst immediately—it invites us to bring our desperate, honest longing to the only One who can satisfy it, even when the wait feels unbearable.
