If you read the Wright Brothers blog<\/a>, you know that we were in the Southeast when Helene came through. That’s why we went to Kitty Hawk on Thursday, September 26. On Friday we drove to Charleston where we knew the weather would be fine…when we got there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fact is, the storm was moving north, and we were driving south. An encounter was inevitable, and we were in it for about 20 minutes just after a lunch stop. Torrential rain reduced visibility to near zero at times, and when everyone’s phones sounded a tornado warning, we pulled over. <\/p>\n\n\n

The picture on the left doesn’t quite capture the storm’s intensity, but while driving from Charleston to Atlanta, hundreds of downed trees bore witness. It was a strong storm!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you seen the “Psalm of the Rainstorm”? Seems appropriate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 Ascribe to the LORD, O heavenly beings, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
2 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness.
3 The voice of the LORD is over the waters; the God of glory thunders, the LORD, over many waters.
4 The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.
5 The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars; the LORD breaks the cedars of Lebanon.
6 He makes Lebanon to skip like a calf, and Sirion like a young wild ox.
7 The voice of the LORD flashes forth flames of fire.
8 The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness; the LORD shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.
9 The voice of the LORD makes the deer give birth and strips the forests bare, and in his temple all cry, \u201cGlory!\u201d
10 The LORD sits enthroned over the flood; the LORD sits enthroned as king forever.
11 May the LORD give strength to his people! May the LORD bless his people with peace! (Psalm 29, ESV)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

PS As this blog prepares to go to press it appears that Hurricane Milton is about to burst over Florida. More power. We can predict ’em…we can’t control ’em. I’m praying the folks in Tampa and other places have already found higher ground. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
