scary storm


A serious rain storm came through our area last night. It was the tree-bending, wind-whistling, electricity-killing kind. We ended up with an eighteen year old and a five year old in our bed. I have to admit that I was feeding off their fears because it was just downright scary. I wanted to go get in my daddy's bed too.

So I did.

At times like that, when you know there is absolutely nothing you can do to change a situation, you go to the One who can. All I could do to protect our kids was pray like crazy. It gave me comfort and peace.

Then the electricity came back on.
