It is a rough and horrible reminder that we are not really in charge.
For all we can control with our intellect and skill, we still have not mastered the unexpected rage of Mother Nature.
My heart, my prayers go out to those devastated by the powerful tornadoes that tore through Oklahoma. It was a ferocious, wide tornado that went through Moore, Oklahoma, with unprecedented wind speeds and strength I would call it a rare storm, but they are happening with greater frequency and intensity now, But that is another topic for another day.
There are different relief agencies to donate what is most needed now - money targeted to where it will do the most good. There is the American Red Cross. There are individual relief groups sponsored by churches, such as Episcopal Relief and Development Agency. Give your dollars there if you can.
The President has already declared Oklahoma a disaster area, and I am sure the US Senators from Oklahoma, normally opposed to disaster relief, will be more generous in this case.
From Episcopal Relief and Development:
Please join us in prayer for those affected by tornadoes and those on watch throughout the night.
