Just in case you’re wondering, I’m alive…

Three days ago, I was wishing for “a” snow day…it’s been THREE going on FOUR! I have certainly enjoyed the down time but would have never wished this upon anyone. As of this morning, there were 500,000+ people without power due to the pressure ice has placed on the looming trees. Believe it or not, they have declared that this is the worst storm to have ever come through our area…EVER. Being the mere Alabama girl I am, I have never seen such conditions. However, I have loved seeing the community help each other, specifically the Church. It has ministered to my heart greatly, and I could not be more grateful that the Lord has given me the joy and privilege to serve His people. Even in times where so many are suffering, I am ever amazed by His grace.

Below are a couple of pictures from the street outside of our complex. Please continue to pray for those without power, and for the city leaders and workers as they try and lead this city to restoration.

After we woke up Tuesday morning, before the extra 6 inches of ice and snow…

Thursday…note the weight of the trees over road.
