The Drought In the Land of Plenty

When drought hits hard in the land of plenty it takes time for the reality to sink in whilst we drink our pre church latte' we ask God to bless us for we are your faithful servants we think we deserve for our God to bless us and He does in His own way the ignorance, however is perplexing rantings about sheep dying on boats not maximizing the inputs in the feedlots commodities sliding the stock market indicators at the cafe after church the message gets dissected the hermaneutics we think were right a great steak or lamb roast is consumed with baked vegies out in the paddock livestock struggles dies in the thousands the rains did not come in time for fodder complaints about the prize of meat reverberate perhaps it is time to wake up to the reality of how the drought hits in the land of plenty.
