- Schools & Day Cares were ALL closed.
- Banks & Other Businesses prepared to be closed.
- My Office was opened until 11:00 AM.
- I managed to get home before the Rain !
- It was amazing how the Electricity in my area never went off.- My Friends & I text one another while watching the Storm on T.V..
- The News Media was showing dramatic storm reports around the area.
- I used this afternoon to continue work on my new Quilt Creation!
---Then - - I realized - - I was not hearing from my dear Friend, Teri via TEXT. We had been texting - - keeping each other Company during the Storm. I assumed she had taken a Nap.
Then - - a Text from Teri revealed she just survived a Tornado. She was sitting in her Recliner - - watching T.V. & Texting - - -when all of a sudden - - she heard this horrific, undescribable noise - - but a sound she shall never forget - - she picked up her Cell Phone and did what she had always heard of others doing - - RUNNING to the Bathtub ! The only thing she did during the Tornado was PRAY ! ! !.
Amazing how her Cell Phone had a signal - - after the Power Outage from the Tornado !
What a Relief she felt - - when she heard the Sound quieted - - -she was thankful that everything in her house was fine - - BUT - - the SOUND returned. The Tornado had returned ! She continued PRAYING.
What seemed like an Hour - - was only about 10 minutes - - but again, she said - - it is something she shall never forget. She said she has never been so Scared in her life ! She began Thanking GOD for protecting her during the Storm. Power would be off for a while - - but she was very, very thankful GOD protected her !
The Lord is my Protector.....He keeps me Safe ! Psalms 18:2
This is the Street next to Teri's Home in Livingston
Thankful for God's safety and protection of your friend.
