Isaiah 45:12 ESV
As most of you know, the latter part of last week brought catastrophic devastation and loss of life in the southeast US. We are fine at our place in NE Alabama, but this is not the case with our neighboring and nearby states. Please pray for the people and places that Hurricane Helene has impacted. This is an ongoing situation and will be for years to come, as some places will never be the same.
With a storm predicted to pass east of us, but still 48 or more hours away, I took a chance that there would be some sun and a few clouds at sunrise. The clouds won out however, but we ended up with a much needed 3/4 inches of rain later in the day. That rain was actually not associated with Helene. I tried to locate an elephant in the sky attempting to chase off other creatures, but I’m not going there!READ MORE
“I form light and create darkness; I make well-being and create calamity; I am the Lord, who does all these things.”
Isaiah 45:7 ESV
I ventured over the hill and near the river on Thursday and enjoyed this September sunrise. Our days late this week have been mostly in the low 90’s (96 yesterday!), but the current dry air really cools faster than humid nights, bringing pleasant mornings…like this one at 61 degrees. We invested $4.95 in an outdoor thermometer several years ago, so no doubt these numbers are correct!READ MORE
