Today I am Thankful...

For friends who band together

For food and supplies

For impromptu prayer meetings

For water that keeps running

For rain that stops pouring

For lots of hands that work together to clear mud from the streets

For power that keeps running even after it has gone out for a while

For second floors on buildings

For cinder-block buildings

For peace and tranquility, even in the midst of things...

And that things keep on going...today is followed by tomorrow and tomorrow by the day after that.  This, too, shall pass just like the sun keeps rising morning after morning.

We're in God's hands, and for that I am very, very thankful.
