The storm has passed

Hi all thanks to many of you who were praying for me on Monday when the storm was raging outside - and boy was it raging here in Tramore!!  The winds didn't die down till after midnight but thankfully all was OK here in the house, I did loose power and phone coverage for a few hours but that was all. There were a lot of trees down in the town and lot of damage to houses, sheds etc but all was cleaned up very quickly yesterday and by the time I went down to the beach in the evening you would hardly know a storm had passed by at all! (unless you looked closely)  The pictures below are the fence of the amusements/fair that were blown off their concrete base and of a car park both of which are opposite the prom. Just shows you the power of the sea!!

                   

 On Sunday, a sermon on Psalm 121, reminded me that God who made the 'heaven and the earth'  - which includes the powerful wind and the waves - He looks after me and He cares for me! 

Psalm 121

1 I look up to the hills. But where does my help come from?

2 My help comes from the Lord. He made heaven and earth.

3 He will not let you be defeated. He who guards you never sleeps.

4 He who guards Israel never rests or sleeps.

5 The Lord guards you.The Lord protects you as the shade protects you from the sun.

6 The sun cannot hurt you during the day. And the moon cannot hurt you at night.

7 The Lord will guard you from all dangers. He will guard your life.

8 The Lord will guard you as you come and go, both now and forever.
