But, thunderstorms and tornadoes leave me unsettled. I hate the thought of those who are caught directly in it's path. But, I know that this is part of God's great nature and am doing my best to accept it as part of the bigger picture :) <br />Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful weekend!Mary Hudak-Collins livingthescripture.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18181851742870395058noreply@blogger.com
