FLOODS, FLOODS AND MORE FLOOODS

Disasters everywhere, can somebody tell me whats becoming of this beautiful planet earth.

My  heart goes to the people of Brazil and Australia.  Reports continue to come in and
things dont look good at the moment.  What is so frustrating is that even the police or the army
cant stop or fight against nature....who can blame them?

Imagine that a city as big as Brisbane in a very short time has become a big flowing waterway.
Unbelievable indeed!  Ya, things can change anytime -today is the only day you have, be grateful,
and tomorrow is yet to come, why not pray for it.

We are indeed powerless, helpless and NOTHING when it comes to the power of mother nature.

All hope is not lost though...DAVID faced very desperate times and this is what he did and its recorded
in the Psalms of David...............SAVE ME, O GOD
                                                 FOR THE WATERS HAVE COME UP TO MY NECK.
                                                 I SINK IN DEEP MIRE,
                                                 WHERE THERE IS NO STANDING;
                                                 I HAVE COME INTO DEEP WATERS,
                                                 WHERE THE FLOODS OVERFLOW ME.
                                                  I AM WEARY WITH MY CRYING;
                                                  MY THROAT IS DRY;
                                                  MY EYES FAIL WHILE I WAIT FOR MY GOD.

David ends his prayer by saying..BUT I AM POOR AND SORROWFUL;
                                                  LET YOUR SALVATION, O GOD, SET ME UP ON
                                                  HIGH.
                                                  I WILL PRAISE THE NAME OF GOD WITH A SONG,
                                                  AND WILL MAGNIFY HIM WITH THANKSGIVING.
                                                   THIS ALSO SHALL PLEASE THE LORD BETTER THAN
                                                   AN OX OR BULL,
                                                   WHICH HAS HORNS AND HOOVES.
                                                    THE HUMBLE SHALL SEE THIS AND BE GLAD;
                                                     AND YOU WHO SEEK GOD, YOUR HEARTS SHALL
                                                     LIVE.

This should be our attitude when we are facing the storms of life.  I rest my case.

God be with all those who are suffering.

Remember: In all your getting, get understanding.
