The man who drinks from One source of living water God will never be thirsty. His faithfullness to that source deepens his roots of trust. Even when trouble surrounds Him his heart is filled with Godly solutions that will deliver him for eternity. He will always remain quenched and the work of his hands will always be fruitful and green even when the sun is scorching hot!

It does not matter what is happening around you, be it famine or drought, if your trust is in Jesus Christ then you will be kept and provided for, even when everyone else around you are feeling the effects of what is going on.
you have to trust God and live.
