Day 6 without electricity
But lest I feel sorry for myself...
When I get bummed out that our 30-foot Kali tree is a goner,
I thank God it wasn’t like this (# 187).
When I see our fence blown over and our foot bridge washed out,
I count my blessings that was all (# 188).
When I start to feel sorry for myself without electricity,
I thank God for men and women working valiantly to change that (# 189).I thank God that I have a roof and all my family, unlike these folks a couple of neighborhoods over (# 190).

Continuing the counting of grace, in good times and bad times. God is always good.
A Hardees’ chicken biscuit and free wi-fi for a few minutes is pretty good too! :-)

Thank you for your perspective. So glad you are safe!
Thank you, Lisa. Continuing prayers for all the needs there in Alabama and the states close by that were also affected.
Each of us needs to count our blessings.
So much to be thankful for. Truly, God is always good!!!
Such a beautiful post and a sweet fragrance to the Lord, I'm sure!!!! So thankful you are ok and praying things will soon be back to some kind of normal again. Thank you for posting!
Wow...thank you for sharing!
I've looked at several photos of the tornado and they all look like a war zone. Thanking God you are safe and sound.
Blessings,
Joan
hi Lisa,
Just saw your comment on my blog...Alabama is even worse...so sad. I never could have understood the destruction of a tornado until seeing it first hand. Praying for your state.
