This morning, as I am reading all the forecasts and projections for Hurricane Sandy’s landfall, I am also praying. Not a big fancy prayer, but simple, short sentences that fill my mind as I read. “Help them, God.” “Please give everyone safety.” Here in Virginia we’re looking at lots of rain and some wind gusts tonight into tomorrow. But wherever you are right now, be thankful that you are safe and reading this, and hug those that may be close by, or at least tell them that you appreciate them. Because anytime that things like this come along, it’s a wake-up call that our God-given life is precious, and that moments are precious, and that it is such a blessing to be here together. Be safe, and be God’s. Slainte, Lisa
“Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble, and He brought them out of their distress. He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed. They were glad when it grew calm, and He guided them to their desired haven.” (Psalm 107:28-30)
Think About These Things 
You are appreciated!

Beautiful post! Yes, life is precious, and we all need to seize the moments we are blessd to have and be grateful ! Your life is a most precious gift to us both! Stay safe and God Bless!
And you both are a gift to me as well. Blessings.
I spent some time praying for everyone over there, too, this morning. I love the Psalm you quoted, too. Over and over, “they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and he brought them out of their distress.” Beautiful words.
We are well and safe. Still praying for those further north. They will have challenges for many weeks to come.
