Isn't it interested that Jesus tells us this was created by God as a concession to our sinful ways? There are so many people trying to tell the world that God is constantly angry and just looking for a reason to condemn people, and yet here is Jesus telling us that thousands of years ago, God made a way for the waters of grace to flow through our parched souls.
Friends, God isn't in a big rush to condemn. God created you and loves you, and when God saw you suffering due to sin, God sent Jesus Christ to make a way through the wilderness, to create the possibility of redemption, to open a way forward for you. God is eager to forgive and filled with hope for a future where joy wins over sorrow.
