After the Hurricane-Praise,Prayers and Recovery

The 16th of September and it’s hard to believe that this was a place called home. Everything has changed; A lot is gone and at the same time, moments of just praise to our Heavenly Father for those that was spared, for homes that are still there and just for moments when all one can do is either laugh or cry.

Internet is very sketchy but most time has been spent either homeschooling (Praise God) which helps pass the time and keep the mind off of other things, trying to contact people with what little telephone service is available, trying to find ways to just give to those who are in more need of us. That has been the hardest part because power and telephone service is still out in many places and it’s hard to find out what we need to find  and praying that many are safe and not in harm’s way.

Please if you can, keep all areas affected by Hurricane Ike in your prayers, it is much needed and much appreciated.

I thank God for just the opportunities He has given to bear testament to His word and I thank God for the many times when His comfort was solely needed.

I’m still in disbelief that places that was familiar is gone.

Gentle Readers, I pray you bear with me, we are getting things back to normal and internet is so sketchy but I praise God though for the little things that we still have and for the needs He covers.

God Bless You dear Gentle Readers.

    My anti-spam word was “hope” which I thought was quite fitting after such a violent storm.. We all have hope in the Father. Though some have lost homes and though there are many who have gone on to eternity there is still hope.

    God bless you for helping those who are in more need than you – that shows so much in your personal character, Twinks. You are a beautiful person.
