Re 65042

Last night (actually early this morning) I was standing at the back door watching the picket fence bow. Only 2 corner, 4x4s were holding it up. The others had already cracked under pressure. A srong gust would take it almost to the ground and then the fence would slowly rise back up. The wind was roaring. It sounded like cars on a wet, paved road driving by. Sheets of rain that were ice cold and stung were brushing against my face and Bright, almost pure white lightening was flashing in the distance.

This was just a small tropical storm but as I stood there observing, I was reminded of what an awesome God I serve. It was like I was seeing just a glimpse of how wonderful and powerful He is but at the same time I also had a feeling of calmness and security that we were safe within his hands and being protected.

Until a 4x4 whaps you on the head and we see you on Fox's "America's Funniest Stupid Things Done on Tape" LOL

Glad you're alright. I'll take the snow over the tropical storms, thank you.

SHHH! Maybe a Darwin award but what are you doing, Dave? It was just a weak storm. I should not have posted what I did but do you have to flag it?:') If Eddie see's this I'm going to have some "splaining to do" I'm thinking about having the AM delete. lol
