They say that everything is in the Bible. I was searching for the rest of a passage from someone I follow on social media tonight and as I was flipping I stopped on Habakkuk for a moment and read 1: 1-4.
Thereβs a lot of truth to this. This reaches across time from one believer to another. It is moving.
We had a severe thunderstorm warning here today. There was a possibility of tornadoes, again. The wind got up and it rained a bit.
The storm passed to one side of our location.
On the plus side the new weather radio worked like a charm.
Iβve mentioned on here before about the tornado that passed over our home last year. I get nervous when we have severe weather. Itβs just a little bit of PTSD from the aforementioned storm last year.
Iβve gotten better. Iβm prepared for what might happen. And thatβs what I can do.
Because, in reality, there isnβt a thing I can do about the storm itself. I have no control. Iβm just a man.
I can pray.
I can trust God to get me through them.
To protect my home and my family. And to help us through what comes next.
Weβre about to have some severe weather here in the southeastern United States. I have been nervous about storms since last year when a tornado passed over (thank God) our home.
This morning Iβm stressing out about the storms coming driving to work and Iβm thinking.
I read that you donβt pray for God to stop the storm, you pray for him to help you get through the storm.
And then in my head pops, βSufficient for the day are itβs own troubles.β I canβt remember chapter and verse, but thatβs Bible. It wasnβt just a thought. It was like it was spoken to me but I could only hear it in my head.
Yβall, this tingle hit the back of my head and ran down my spine and I can only describe it as something touched me. Iβm concerned about the storms coming, but I have a calm that has just descended on me.
I think He spoke to me and comforted me this morning.
Itβs the only way I can describe it.
It was spiritual.
Prayers for our area are welcome.
Thatβs it. Thatβs the post.

I donβt know what may happen in the next couple of days, do we ever? I may not be able to post.
But then, anything could happen at any time. I could die today in an accident. And there wouldnβt be anything marking my passing here in this blog. It would be another blog that just stopped.
And thatβs not this blog. I post every day. Iβll be back. Unless I canβt come back at all.
