NW Arkansas floods

                                               We can count on the word of the Lord always.
We have had terrible storms and floods here in NW Arkansas. One life was lost - please pray for the family of the lady who was swept away in the raging water. Our town was flooded to the point of it being a river. The main highway from Fayetteville was totally flooded and cars were stranded for over 4 hours. The waters receded late in the evening, but we are expecting more rain tonight. Thankfully we are all safe and dry for now.  He has blessed us with sunshine this morning, and I believe in His promise that He will not destroy the earth by floods again. I am looking for the rainbow! All of this is in His hands - we thank Him for being there.
