Oklahoma Tornados

[sidekick]

Well the tornados continued to destroy oklahoma tonight. My moms car was crushed by a tree and our whole backyard fence was taken out. She is without power tonight and no where safe to go for the ongoing storms. I'm devastated and enraged by the destruction that is continuing to take place. My heart goes out for all those who have lost loved ones. I thank God that He has protected my mom and continue to pray that she remains safe through the night.

Sorry. I am praying you and those down there. ♥

No matter how bad things get, Romans 8:29 always applies.

And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28

I am so sorry, and I feel so helpless. We are told that there will be much of this kind of thing as we near what Revelations talks about.

There were winds to 149MPH on a small mountain in Oregon, Mt Bachelor, only 22 miles from a town of just under 100,000 people. We only knew of it because our paper said so.

We are all going to share in what is coming, we can only wrap the entire armor of God around us and know what has real value for us. No matter what happens in our world here, we have security and safety through Christ.

I was shocked to see on the news that more tornadoes hit that area... Just when you thought it couldn't get any more devastating.

My heart and prayers go out to your mother and everyone else down there.

I experienced a hurricane-spawned tornado as a child.
Anxiety attacks and lots of property damage took place.
But it was not a direct hit.
While I do not know your situation, I can imagine it.
I pray for healing, wisdom, and God to be found in the recovery process.

i try to put myself in the other persons shoes when replying to their situation. in this case i have nothing to compare it to. i am completely at a loss for words. anything i could say wouldn't begin to compare to the immensity of the event esp since it has kept repeating itself. i know you must be a very strong person since God has said He will not send more than you can handle. i have prayed for oklahoma before and i do it again. i am glad you have sought out support through christian chat

well living in Oklahoma I would expect tornadoes to cause damage and such. hate hearing people died in it. but tornadoes in OK is a given just like earthquakes in LA.

Yikes! Scary stuff. Prayers to you and fellow victims - both for survivors, and those who didn't make it.
