Ha, ha! Love that first request of God. And why not?! He can do whatever He likes! Keep these 'hits' coming, Sara. Ta-ta, Gershon

Thank you, Gershon. Yes, God is in control, but sometimes it is Satan who is doing all the damage, but God is allowing it so we have to accept it as His will. Sara

Thank you, Lasaad. I need those blessings. Well, in 1994 we had a flood here due to a stalled low pressure or something that was the results of a hurricane. I think they called it called it Tropical Storm, Alberto. Anyway we had some of the same problems here at my home then, but thank God it wasn't as bad as it was for those others who were hit with the tornadoes then flooding rains. Sara

Yes, We are safe, Anne-Lise. We have got a little headache because all our drain lines around our home were not working properly which in turn let water overflow into our home/basement and the play porch. My husband and I are working on getting it cleaned up and repaired. He outside and me inside. We are not able but it has to be done. Sara

Too much of anything is bad. An occasional rain cools the earth and man's heart. In excess, it can invite trouble. However a cloud burst is preferred to a tornado. Thank God, you are spared. Enjoy your day !

You are so right, Valsa. I feel for the people out in California, Oregon, and Washington State that have been having so many different types of weather that is not normal plus all the states with so much snow. Thanks for the visit. Sara

It's that time of year, Mrs Sara. Probably be more to come. By the grace of God we will all be spared. Great to see you today.

Daniel, It was hard to look at on TV for at least three reasons, first, the devastation of all those people's property, second, the horror of the loss of lives and the injuries, and then third knowing that it could have been us. Thanks for your visit and for dropping by my page taking time to leave a nice review. Sara

Hi Sara, A little rain here and it is needed. However, too much rain in different areas can be bad. Thank goodness that tornado didn't hit your area. Enjoy the rest of your day-Alexis

Alexis, We had a whole lot of rain in a short amount of time. A river was running through out yard plus through our basement, but God spared us from what so many experienced. The waiting until the storm passed over or we felt the danger had passed wasn't easy, but God helped us through. Thanks for the visit and remember to pray for those who lost so many relatives in a close-knit community and have lost everything that they owned in personal belongings. Sara
