Rita is the storm that really hit lone star..
My daughter only had a tree down from Katrina..We left from n of Houston because my dauughter has a chronic illness and could not tolerate no A/C if the electricity went off...Of course having my house to flee to was a blessing.
The problem was that nobody knew where the wastewater went. According to a county spokesperson, It will depend on where it went before we can say what happened.
As I read the article, I imagined all the wrongs of my life as being like that missing filthy lagoon. In my clearest moments of faith, I can say in all honesty that I really dont know where they went, but they are gone. The last time I saw the real guilt of my envy, anger, and impatience, they were all nailed to the cross of a Man suffering for wrongs He never committed.
Where did my guilt go? The Bible gives me answers that I cant really understand: buried in the deepest sea (Mic. 7:19), as far as the east is from the west (Ps. 103:12), erased from the eternal books of heavens justice (Col. 2:13-15).
No, all I can really understand is that I owe unending gratefulness, praise, and honor to the One who bore our sina mystery of inexpressibly good news.
