The power of the Lord is amazing. His favor was upon us. I watched over and over how He protected us from what could have been some disastrous moments waiting for the hurricane and tornado to come and pass. We opened our home up to friends and their dog that needed shelter from their evacuated home and they were such a blessing to us. You would think we were the blessing to them, but they were actually blessings to us. It was nice to have a full house to weather the storm with. We felt safe knowing we were all in it together. The father of the family knew about pumps and repairs and was able to help us get through the first night. Our neighbors allowed us to use their generator the next day, after we lost power, for our sump pump so we could continuously keep the water out from the basement therefore protecting our water heater and air conditioner. Being a servant of God gave us His divine hedge of protection in that there were no damages to the home. We still had hot running water, gas to cook and a fabulous summer breeze to keep us cool with out missing the air conditioner. The secular expression may be "wow we were lucky, we dodged that one" but my belief? God bestowed His mercy on us and sealed up our home from all harm and sent angels to help us. So today on this beautiful sunny Monday morning, I am in awe of God and so forever grateful for His love and faithfulness through this hairy weekend. I thank Him for being so present and so in control of it all. Not a hair on our heads were hurt and not a speck of anything touched our home. I pray the same for you all and I pray you have a blessed and peaceful day in Him!
