HOME........


Everyone in America has a home. It might be a penthouse high in the sky overlooking Central Park, it might be a cute little apartment with little flowers planted here and there, it might be a large mansion hidden behind a beautiful gate with music notes on it, it might be a sweet farmhouse in the middle of nowhere (my favorite), it might be on a city street with houses all around, it might be an old Victorian home, it might be a log cabin high in the mountains, it might be a home overlooking an ocean OR it could be a home that was flooded yesterday in Iowa.
Please keep the people that went through this flood yesterday in your prayers today.
We have all worked our whole lives to make our home special - treasures that cannot be replaced. Men have their woodworking tools, farm equipment, TVs, tractors, trucks and women have their sewing machines, photos, needlework, quilts and children have their books, games and keepsakes from school. Oh, I guess a lot of things can be replaced but to have to start completely from scratch would be heartbreaking. To see your home sitting under a river would be even more heart breaking......

Will absolutely keep those poor people in my prayers as well as the many in this country who are homeless and have nothing to lose. God have mercy on them and us all.
