Thanks again! From what I’ve seen online tonight (Wednesday), the fires are not as bad as last night. No word from Auntie since around 11am central. I think she is OK at my cousin’s house and her block remains in the pre-evacuation zone now. I am glad it has not progressed to a mandatory evac zone. Her home is so nice. Just right for her and Henri. I hope she gets some peaceful sleep tonight.
((hugs)) Thanks for your thoughts and prayers.
The Bible tells us about another David, a flesh-and-blood person who was no stranger to unpredictable life circumstances and who loved to respond to God in praise: King David of Israel. He saw the giant Goliath fall by his sling, he was chased by the murderous King Saul, and he watched the nation of Israel rally under his own leadership. Yet in all these situations, David took time to write and sing psalms of praise to his sovereign God. For example, he wrote, The Lord has established His throne in heaven, and His kingdom rules over all (Ps. 103:19). David understood that in all circumstances we can worship and thank God for His care and control.
What are you experiencing today? A time of blessing or of testing? In any event, remember Davids example, and sing praises to God for His rule in our lives.
Read: Psalm 103:15-22
