Suddenly--without any warning--a funnel cloud tore through our neighborhood yesterday afternoon. Over half of the trees in the complex were uprooted or broken to pieces; siding, deck furniture, tool sheds, shingles, etc. were blown asunder. The houses on each side of ours suffered a good deal of damage. But...praise the Lord...our house was not damaged (except for a small, fiberglass shed). And, more importantly, NO ONE was injured.
This event reminded me of the biblical passage about "the house that was built on THE ROCK" that withstood the storms. [Matthew 7:24-27]
I'd been praying protection for our home (and the homes of our loved ones) ever since the terrific wildfires and severe rains/storms all around the country have been broadcast on the news these past several weeks. I believe God heard (and answered) my prayers--as He provided protection from this fierce funnel cloud. I just wonder IF I hadn't prayed, what would've happened. (Prayer is better insurance than STATE FARM!)
Oh--we were without electricity for about 10 hours, but thousands around the city are still without power. Our POWER SOURCE is more powerful and dependable than Toledo Edison's! Our LIGHT & POWER comes from The City of our King (Jesus)!
PLUG into His energy resources, people. And remember: THE WAY YOU PRAY TODAY DETERMINES YOUR TOMORROWS!!!
