Remember scenario G? Where God performs a miracle and all the trees fall away from my house? Well guess who got a miracle?
That's right. Me. And my neighbors. Thank goodness!
I came home Sunday to this:
This tree is blocking the entrance to our street. It used to shade that nice house on the corner, but fell luckily in the right direction. All it took out was a streetlight and a power line. It didn't hit a single house or car. And if I had stayed home instead of at Jenn's, my car could've been parked under that tree.
It was an absolute mess in our neighborhood, with trees and branches down everywhere. The power came back Monday morning and thankfully now most everything has been cleaned up. The tree has been split in half and moved out of the way. We all have a feeling it won't be moved before we are. But that's ok with us. Our houses are here and not a single tree fell on a house that had someone living in it. Paige said it perfectly, that God gently laid each branch in the exact right spot, protecting us. I just am so thankful that God did this for us.
Praise the Lord and how he gently carries us through the (very literal) storms of life.
