Trista and I just made it back home from Van, Texas.   We drove over to make a delivery to her friends, whose home was destroyed.

This is a picture of their home!

We were not allowed to drive into the area with the most severe damage.....however, I took the below picture from area properties that were in the path of the tornado before it reached the community of Van.    I couldn't believe what I was seeing...

Map of our area!  Much flooding taking place!!!  As I said in my last post....Rain is in the forecast for the rest of the week. Our rain amount received last night was 7 inches alone.  It has rained so much since January and the ground is just saturated.  

Roads....completely washed out!

Unbelievable!!!

All three of these photos are pictures of  different roads in our area!

The Damage is like nothing I have ever seen.   

There are now confirmed deaths and there are still people missing.  

Please keep the community of Van in your prayers.  And...pray for the surrounding towns that have much flooding!

Prayers Please.....

Prayers please! 

Our nearby neighboring town of Van was hit by a tornado, last evening.

Many homes were destroyed and 10 people are reported missing.  

Friends of our daughter....lost their home...All that was left of the home, was the closet they were in.   Thank you Lord!

Flooding on many of the roads in our County and the surrounding Counties.  More rain headed this way, with rain in the forecast for the rest of the week.

The ground in our area is already saturated and many trees have fallen.   

Please say a prayer for all of the people in this area and for our dear friends in Van, Texas.

Blessings, my friends..

Thoughts for Good Living.

         "Blaming others."   

The practice of constantly blaming others for our own discontentment....is harmful, and more so for the one who is doing the attacking. 

We normally blame others....in order to make ourselves look good.  In my opinion....blaming others constitutes a very low self-esteem from the person who is pointing the finger at others.  

Each of us are responsible for the choices we make and in the "Blaming Game".... chances are, that adverse fate will effect your own life.

If you are involved in a situation with other people,  and the picture clearly indicates that things are not turning out the way you thought they should.....then perhaps it is time to re-evaluate the happenings.   

If everyone else is doing their part....then it must be time for  the one that is "blaming" to take another look at themselves!

It could, just be, that the one that is griping....is so wrapped up in their griping and complaining, that they fail to realize that they are actually the cause for all the pieces not fitting together as they should. 

Just some thoughts for good living!
