He made a spring in the desert

Near the shore of the Dead Sea, the terrain is barren and the air is hot. We hiked up the wadi En Gedi, past ibex combing the rock face for food, and thornbushes clinging to the pathway. As we climbed, there was water in the bottom of the wadi; within a fifteen minute climb were waterfalls and pools, grasses and trees. What simple joy to wade in to the cool water at the spring. It was like grace, pouring down on us from on high., soothing and calming our troubled hearts, filling us with joy. Here our class is enjoying the cooling spring.
