PRAYER FOCUS
This morning, let’s pray for all those who had weather-related damage yesterday. Yesterday, I heard there were three tornadoes in Shreveport. I don’t know all the details. This morning, David received a message from our son about about a tornado at Berry College which is located about a mile or so from their our son’s home. It seems most of the damage was at the front entrance and the two beautiful fields leading up to the main campus. When we go to Rome, GA, we always ride through the campus to enjoy seeing the unique old building that remain, the beautiful drive to Camp Winshape, the pond with geese, ducks, etc. that we can feed, the unique buildings for staff, etc. There are always hikers and bikers along the little road. Best of all is seeing the deer, sometimes thousands of them. Join me in thanking God for the safety of the students and other residents there. We even heard the eagles who live and nest there are safe. Thank God for the safety all the people who live there and on Martha Berry Highway. I an unaware if there was additional damage in the area. Pray for all people who wake up there and anywhere else to deal with tornado damage.
Thank God for the safety of the people in this area. Pray for the families of the ten who lost their lives yesterday due to weather in the South..
