As I was sitting this morning writing My blog, my phone chirped… Text message. It was my cousin Kim. She lives along the gulf coast not too far from where the approaching Hurricane Ida is coming ashore. Outer bands of rain are already creating localized flash flooding and the winds are strong. She said they are going to ride it out, told me she loved me and asked for prayers 🙏🏻

Hurricanes bring heavy wind and floods so they are always a threat. But my cousin Kim and her brothers and sisters grew up down there and they have rode out many a storm.

So today I’m gonna say a special prayer for Kim and all the folks down on the Gulf Coast. Ida is coming and she’s bringing a mess with her 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Your welcome to join me in saying a prayer for all the good folks down there as well 🙏🏻
“I have both the violent turbulence of the storm and the quiet promises of God in the storm. And what I must work to remember is that something is not necessarily stronger simply because it’s louder.”

Have a great Sunday afternoon ☀️

I LOVE my Waterfalls 24/7! This time of the year about the only time I get out there to enjoy it is in the cooler evening/night hours. It’s so HOT! But that’s ok, I really prefer the night Pond anyway 😊 In fact, in about a months time, we are going to host a Moonlight Pond Tour. It will introduce you to the beauty and Magic of a well lit Aquatic Landscape!



Here’s to some Moonlight Magic 🌝
Next months Full Harvest Moon is Coming!

With all the rain we’ve seen, this morning’s sunrise was a welcome sight 🌞 So many of our neighbors right up the road here need our prayers, and some help as well. I’m speaking about the flooding that happened yesterday in Houston, Humphreys, Hickman & Dickson Counties. Many families have lost everything, possessions, homes, cars, pets and much more, many lives were lost!



Many are confirmed dead and at least 30 people are still missing. These folks need our prayers, our help and some money to help them rebuild to boot… Many have no power, no edible food, no home to go back too. They are under a curfew and a boil water restriction, so you can’t even get a drink of clean water. Things happen so quickly 😢
Here is a link if you would like to send a donation – https://www.cfmt.org/giving-and-investing/become-a-donor/give-to-a-fund/tennessee-emergency-response-fund/
Sunday is a day of prayer for most. Let’s send some up for the people of middle Tennessee 🙏🏻

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
