Hi! I don't know anyone personally. I feel a little like we are all in it's path. Prayer for them and all the U.S. May we all become wiser and develop more faith through this. Sometimes it's hard to sit so far away from it and nothing's changed in our lives but small inconviences. Father help us see! Belle

Mandy and I spent some time in the back hallway tonight. We have been under tornado warnings off and on this evening, and probably will be throughout the night. Sirens were going off earlier tonight so we took cover, such as it is. Right now everything seems pretty calm with just lots of rain and winds. Nothing damaging up to this point. I haven't heard of anything touching down anywhere nearby. We pray for everyone's safety.

Did you have any tornados touch down near you? Do you have a storm cellar you can get in? I hope the tornados have all passed by now! I'm praying for safety for everyone.

Only one was close enough for danger. Thankfully it did not touch down. We do not have a storm cellar but did go to the safest part of the house until the warning was lifted. I think another one somewhere else did touch down but there were no injuries. A couple mobile homes were destroyed but no one was in them. I've never been in a tornado but have been been within a few miles of where they have touched down. It is not a pretty sight. Thanks for praying everyone. God kept us safe. :)

Well it was kind of scary there for a while, but all is well, and now we have the cooler weather, and some much needed rain. The night of the storm, when the danger was past, the cool wind blew and we opened up the bedroom window and lay there listening to the rain. It was so pleasant. :)
