Message to Father

Well, we’re prepping again for another storm here in Florida. This one is different, and actually quite rare in that it’s not coming up through the Yucatan as they normally do. This storm is coming from the Pacific and headed straight at the state. There is simply no question of whether it will “turn” and…

In All Things Look for Good

I truly think that is what we have to do. In all things look for the good. Yesterday in this little blog I shared some God moments happening with a woman who is heading up a volunteer effort in NC. In all things we have to look for the good, and for God. Last night…

I Will Provide

Yesterday I listened to a podcast I try to catch at least several times a week. The host had a guest, Leigh Brown, a realtor from Western NC. Well, right now she’s not a realtor, she has become a full-time disaster recovery coordinator. It started last week when she was simply trying to get some…

Something happened yesterday afternoon though. I began noticing pictures and videos being posted that showed not the devastation…

Praise You in This Storm

I’m not sure about you but yesterday was difficult. The images on social media coming out of Eastern TN and North Carolina were like nothing I’ve seen before. It’s difficult to understand the depth of the destruction that Helene has caused in these areas. I saw a report yesterday that over 30″ of rain fell…

Large and Powerful

Yesterday the pictures and videos were all over social media showing the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. We spoke with family in the midwest who were feeling her effects last night, that’s how much of the country felt this storm. In addition to the towns in northern FL that were virtually destroyed, I saw a video…

His Message

It’s difficult to know where to begin this little blog this morning. We are all safe here, and our city, compared to others is just fine. Hurricane Helene has moved through the state of FL, making her way now through the neighboring states with a vengeance. She made landfall in the Big Bend area at…
