Thank you so much for echoing my thoughts. I also have two daughters and I have relieved putting them in the bus for summer Camp, my baby daughter not really wanting to go……I quickly thank God and pray for all
the families involved in Texas.
I recall the recent tragedies in Asheville and not being able to contact my daughter for days, not knowing how she was. And I quickly thank God & say a prayer. Thank you for reminding me that God is always there for us.
I drove over the San Gabriel on Saturday morning. (The flash flood alert came on when I was already out.) Last Wednesday I listened to the HSP episode about the bridge that feels like flying over chaos; and that is exactly what it felt like. And then I remembered standing on the bank of that very river with you nearby, participating in a cloud of witnesses at a baptism. I have been asking a similar question all week: how can a river be both so life giving and so destructive?
It's been interesting/confusing/maybe also enlightening to find God leading me to passages of Scripture where rivers are destructive or malevolent. The Nile turned to blood. The Jabbok--a boundary not to be crossed. And then I read this verse in Job (22:16): "They were snatched away before their time, and their foundations were washed away by a river."

His faithful love DOES endure forever.
These verses have gotten me through some pretty tough times. They are true.
