Mightier Than These

Psalm 93:3-4 > "The floods have risen up, O LORD. The floods have roared like thunder; the floods have lifted their pounding waves. But mightier than the violent raging of the seas, mightier than the breakers on the shore - the LORD above is mightier than these!" (NLT)

     The devastation of hurricanes lately have left us speechless. The flood waters that have claimed homes and taken lives are innumerable. Our hearts have grieved with those that have been in its path. Tears flowed as we thought of the loss of so many and for so many.
     I found myself glued to the TV watching to see where the hurricane was going to hit next. Praying that it would not be us and then feeling guilty because it would be someone else. I knew wherever it was going to land would be bad.
     Hurricane Irma scared me. She was big. It seemed as if her size was never ending! I couldn't help but be mesmerized by her size and intensity. She was strong. It was like she'd been caged and finally set free. Her waters seemed to devour land as if she were hungry in search of food. Yes, Irma scared me. She seemed powerful.
     God's Word has such sweet nuggets tucked inside that remind us of who He is and the strength He has. Although Irma was mighty, God is mightier. Let's not forget that either.

***Continue to pray for all those that have been affected by this active hurricane season.

In awe of Him,
Vonda
