tornado

To see the outpouring of people from neighboring cities to come and help is beautiful! My heart is so heavy for those that were affected by the storms. They have safe areas set up and are serving food, prepping for today. Search and rescue efforts are still underway. LR suffered mass casualties. I saw where the hospital was operating at a level 3 – so so so sad. It’s heartbreaking and I praise You we didn’t have the casualties they did. I think we are at 3 people and many animals. I still haven’t heard from my friend but I know she is safe. I made a fb post and her family commented on it. Thank You Lord! They were trapped but have been released from the hospital. I can’t thank You enough for keeping us safe.
I knew this was going to hit but didn’t know where. I stacked my lawn chairs and laid them down so they wouldn’t blow away, in the morning. I’ve never done that. the wind never got that bad here and the storm cell was so close to us on the backside. It’s been awhile since we were actually hit. I can remember we used to be known for the tornadoes that would touch down here. We had 17 in one night in the 90’s. Idk how I remember that but I do. I still have no power and it’s been out since 4:44 – nice time.

I knew I was safe and I told my daughter we were going to be fine in colt but I couldn’t guarantee anywhere else. It was amazing knowing we were safe and He knows it would have got me bc I was outside talking to it. I guess one day I’ll go head to head a one but I’ll win! No weapon formed! Maybe it was practice. Maybe it was a test to see if I would command it. I commanded it dissipate but He told me it wasn’t going to. Morgan knew it was going to hit too but that we were ok and that it was judgement. Hurts my heart bc the city is really great. They brush a lot under the rug and don’t air their dirty laundry- unlike FC – and they have some too but all in all I love where I’m from. I’ve seen worse, for sure.

I was going to have a sale today but I think we will have to postpone that for a few days.

The high school and the football stadium is gone. Several restaurant and many small businesses have mass damage. The area is hit hard and devastated but it’s all material and can be rebuilt. The people. The people are safe. Even knowing that there are many deaths coming doesn’t help when it happens. I’ve shielded my heart and asked wisdom to shield me but I’ve cried and I’ve prayed. It hurts! Thank You for keeping us! My God thank You! Same storm. Same cell. Killed hundreds in LR, if not thousands bc it hit on shackleford, one of the main roads- and in the middle of the day. I watched the video of it come down from a lady that was at baptist visiting when it hit. Thank You Daddy that it weakened before it got here.

I haven’t been to see yet and not sure if I will for a bit. I was asked if I wanted to go look yesterday and I wanted to but Holy Spirit told me no don’t go so I didn’t. I was a nurse and was cert search and rescue in another life but I’d prolly be in the way in this one. Thank You for sending help. I live on HWY 1 and you have to take this main road to get into Wynne, unless you’re purposely on the backroads, but this is the main way in and 64. I could hear each siren that went by and could see they were coming to help and I cried. My heart felt such joy I was overwhelmed and cried. Morgan’s shop was damaged but we had a feeling He was pulling her from there so we took that as a definitive sign. Thank You she was already gone! Thank You that Kim is safe. Thank You! I never cried in fear that she wasn’t ok bc I held right to what I’ve seen knowing she was fine but when I saw I couldn’t help but cry. Thank You!!

I’m so thankful for You Holy Spirit. Thank You for helping me keep it together and be who You need me to be on the frontlines free of all fears! I was fully expecting a tornado to bounce out on HWY 1 from 306 bc it looked bad and I was just pacing my yard talking to it. I’m glad the storm stayed mostly in the back where there are fields and didn’t go near I-40. It could have been worse. Thanks! Thank You! I can’t thank You enough!

I think I’m gonna take a nap lol. A few hours and the sun will be up and then wr will have some lights. It’s not cold or hot so the temp has been pleasant without electricity. Did have a heater beep and I thought they were trying to get it back on but no … idk what that was about but I heard it twice and got up to go see and there was a red light on and I flip the light switch but no. The power wasn’t back on. I almost unplugged the thing but instead I laughed at it.

Fear has tried to creep in w this but we’ve kicked it to the curb. Thank You for keeping Elizabeth and Jonathan safe. Thanks Daddy! My God thank You!

My legs are hurting and that means we are shifting. I pray we are shifting into our highest bestest timeline ever … thanks Y’all I would have completely fell apart without y’all on this. The whole city is basically gone. Thank You for keeping us I love You so very much. hit right downtown there too. I know but it still hurts. Thank You!
