God's Promise
Vacation Bible School was a little rough tonight. We had some rain last night, but tonight it was a little different. Wind conditions were extreme, and there was rumor of large size hail. The building lost power. 200 people in one school cafeteria makes for some loud conversations! Some good conversations that were long overdue, and some tension with people that are still unsure, and misguided.
When we finally left the building, it was still raining a little bit, the power was still not on, but we got into the van and off we go!! As we turned the corner to get to our street, lightening was flashing, thunder rolling, and the most beautiful double rainbow was stretched from one side of the block to the other. Right over our house! It seemed as if God was re~telling me that He is in control, and He remembers the Promise He made~ oh so long ago.
I should also keep remembering.~

The Abstract
What is it about abstract things that I identify with lately? Abstract life, food, home, academics, schedule? Could be. Mostly I think it is just that there are so many questions that need to be answered; that will not be answered. So abstract is this situation, that it brings me to tears almost daily. I believe eventually, that will subside. So many were and are being hurt. So much hatred has accumulated. Abstract information, lies, really, are doing so much damage to everyday living. I pray for healing and closure for all who are involved. Swiftly, Lord, heal us.
