Safe In His Care

Last night the Mercy of God was felt at our home. The winds howled leaving everyone feeling a bit uneasy. Melanie's boyfriend came over late in the evening to make sure she was feeling safe. He is such a considerate young man. You could hear the tin of the barn roof steadily banging up and down. The wind was relentless. A bit of rain fell. As we checked the radar for this area on the computer, there was a strip of land with no warnings, right between two tornado watch boxes. We were right in that narrow path where no warnings were. The night passed without even the sound of thunder in the distance. It was just as though God put His hand over our land and blessed us with His watch care. We were Safe in His Care.
A peaceful sleep came to each one of us last night and this morning broke with sunny skies.
The wind is still blowing wildly but I think it is to cast the blossoms from the fruit trees and make it appear as pink and white "snow" carried across the yard. What a wonderful God we serve.
