Today as we celebrate our 1 year anniversary of moving to Southeast Texas I am reminded of the unusual beginning to our lives down here. We had been in our house about 4-5 weeks when Hurricane Ike hit. Anywhere you go in the south Houston/Galveston area you can still see the remnants of the devastation caused by this tremendous storm.
I stayed in our new home through the storm. With the winds howling at well over 100 mph and the torrential rain falling, I was safe in my home. As the eye of the hurricane passed over, it became so peaceful in comparison. I asked God to protect me and our home. We escaped with minimal damage to our house and I was fine.
You may be going through storms in your life today. Let me encourage you to place your faith in the hands of the One who can calm any storm in life. Jesus Christ can and will calm your storms.
Welcome to REV'D
As I sat patiently watching a train pass I noticed that the majority of the cars had been “tagged” with graffiti. I began wondering why we humans feel so strongly that we must leave our mark on this world. What I came up with is it is because we need to let people know we were here.
Walking through a grave yard I noticed the dates on a tombstone; 1927-1990. For many the mark we leave is the dash between two dates.
Maybe that is what this blog is about . . . leaving my mark somehow.
