“33 ¶ He turns rivers into a wilderness, And the watersprings into dry ground; 34 A fruitful land into barrenness, For the wickedness of those who dwell in it. 35 He turns a wilderness into pools of water, And dry land into watersprings. 36 There He makes the hungry dwell, That they may establish a city for a dwelling place, 37 And sow fields and plant vineyards, That they may yield a fruitful harvest. 38 He also blesses them, and they multiply greatly; And He does not let their cattle decrease. 39 When they are diminished and brought low Through oppression, affliction, and sorrow, 40 He pours contempt on princes, And causes them to wander in the wilderness where there is no way; 41 Yet He sets the poor on high, far from affliction, And makes their families like a flock. 42 The righteous see it and rejoice, And all iniquity stops its mouth. 43 Whoever is wise will observe these things, And they will understand the lovingkindness of the LORD.” (Psalm 107:33-43 NKJV)

We think we can help the climate

We think we can save the world

We are arrogant beyond measure

God turns rivers into a wilderness

God makes watersprings into dry ground

God can turn a fruitful land into barrenness

God can turn a wilderness into pools of water

God can turn dry land into watersprings

God is glorious beyond measure

Prayerful question: Does my prayer recognize my arrogance and the glory of God?
