This is the day that Hurricane Milton is expected to make landfall. Deborah’s daughter, Macy, moved to Florida this year to begin her teaching career. The school is closed the next few days and Macy has evacuated to the home of a friend’s grandparents.
I am freaking out about the whole situation, and from my home in the middle of a triple-landlocked state, all I can do is pray for everyone. My little mind shuts down with overwhelming information and emotions. There is just so much disaster – both now and as they work to repair everything in the future.
Please pray. (And donate what you can.)
I am freaking out, too. The verse that says, “even the winds and rain obey him” is on a loop in my brain. I am praying that God stops this.
I’m just checking the internet for updates now. Landfall is south of Tampa. I saw a news clip earlier that said if it went north of Tampa, there would have been a worse storm surge in Tampa Bay.
