"A large E-F3 tornado (pictured above) with peak winds of 150 mph,
ripped though the area last month, 30 mi. to the west of our home.
It destroyed a house, and damaged another. This particular tornado was on the
ground for about 15.5 miles.
We were shopping in a neighboring city at the time,
and the sky was very dark and stormy. We decided to head home a
different way, and praise God...Otherwise we would have headed into part of the
storm! The hail here in the Midwest is known to reach the size of baseballs
(or larger), and tornado's and severe weather are not uncommon.
But, thankfully we know the One who is in control of the weather
and the storms! I am thankful for His protection that day, last month,
and also for the previous month, when a tornado was spotted
in the field behind our house! We experienced hail, high winds,
and a power outage for almost 2 days... Day-2-Thanking God for His
compassionate protection and care!"
Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind fulfilling His word: Psalm 148:8
The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit
the wicked: the LORD hath His way in the whirlwind and in the storm,
and the clouds are the dust of His feet. Nahum 1:3
Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children: Let them praise
the name of the LORD: for His name alone is excellent; His glory is above
the earth and heaven. Psalm 148:12-13
