I wrote about the flooding in the previous blog. Here is some interesting pictures from the heavy rain.

They said that we had about 10 inches in 12 hours. Really we had about 9 and a half inches in about 5-6 hours. The last few hours wasn’t much.
Here is a short video also:

I had a thought tonight regarding your church members who lost their physical houses in the flood. I wanted to share it with you… thought it might be encouraging.
If they rebuild their houses, and flooding happens again, their houses will wash away again. But they DO have a firm foundation on Christ, and that is a foundation which NOTHING can wash away. “My hope is built on nothing less…”
