| HURRICANE SANDY 2012 |
Two weeks ago right now... I was in a hotel room with my friend and our five children. The children had just gone down to bed when the power went out. We watched as the sky changed colors, the trees blew sideways and the rain was soaking through the windows onto the carpeting. In all that we had no idea what was happening to the surrounding towns. We could not have imagined that the boardwalks were falling into the ocean, the sand was toppling over buildings, and the waves were washing away homes filled with memories. These are the things that I thought about today. Although many people I know have regained some sort of their "new" normal, many people have not been able to even begin. Tonight I think as I sit on my couch watching tv, working on my blog.. I take this time to say... I wish there were more I could do to help those who are suffering. If you are looking for something to do there are many great organizations and churches looking for volunteers... And if you know of someone who has a need, please message me.... There are many people in my church that are trying to help as many people as we can....
On a personal note, I was so happy to hear that a sweet woman made it through surgery today alright and it was even sweeter to see my dear friend and see for myself that she is alright after her surgery... May we all be held in God's embrace and remember that God is always here even when we feel we need to look harder to see. -Amen
