"A Shelter In The Time Of Storms"

A terrible wind with rain this morning. Ground covered with leaves and water. 5-20-2019 Perryton, TX
In Perryton, Texas we had 2 ½ inches of rain within a one hour period. My driveway and sidewalks are covered solid with water, and leaves, We are in a tornado alert for the entire day. It's nice to be home on days like this. It's been dark all day, but so far we haven't lost our electrical power. The television keeps going off because we have dish, and every little cloud cuts off the circuit. It could be much worse, so I am thankful for what we have. I called my sister in Oklahoma City, and all the schools had been closed for today. This tornado alert covered a wide, and long area. It was graded as very possibly dangerously high winds, and hail with tornadoes.


I did some baking, and made chicken salad for sandwiches this morning. I'm fixed for food for a few days. I will keep a close watch on the weather channel. It will even take center stage over politics. It looks like if the enemy don't get us, the tornadoes will. Why do we worry? We are protected from all harm if we are trusting God. We are humans though, and wouldn't be if we never worried about anything. We are no different than Jesus disciples who feared trouble every time Jesus got out of their sight. He will never lose patience with us as long as we chose to stay close to Him. We may not can see Him, but we know He is there.


I do fear deep trouble in the future, I had a computer technician at my house today changing out my old modem to a new one. He told me I had a wireless computer connected to mine, but didn't attempt to find out more about it. He was puzzled. We never know just what is going on with our personal life any more. I don't believe we have any privacy left. The world has gotten too scientifically advanced for privacy. This too, I believe, is a fulfillment of bible prophesy in order for everything God planned to actually happen. Jesus told Peter before the cock crowed thrice, that he would deny Him. This is after Peter said, “Lord I will never deny You.” Peter denied Christ, then the cock crowed the third time. Peter remembered what Jesus had told him, and he cried. Jesus was God also, and God is the greatest of all scientist. He is allowing these unbelievably discoveries to happen because of his original plan. We never know when we will be used like Peter to help fulfill that plan. Judas was another example of one of Jesus disciples who seemingly didn't know he was the one who would betray Christ. Afterward Judas went and hung himself. These are scary facts, but we cannot deny them. God's Word is true, and it gives account of these happenings. I pray I will keep my life as free from sin as possible, although I know it will still be flawed.


God Bless
