Club Adventist
Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do.
And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with
– even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently. Romans 14.1: The Message

It is very eerie to see pictures of vast distruction surrounding a mosting intacked home. Gives me the shivers. I've heard of people suffering survivors guilt when going through a wild fire, tornado, flood etc and coming back to find their home had not been touched when other around them lost everything.

As someone said (a black joke in the face of destruction): "next time, make sure you paint your house yellow".

Hard to believe that photo. I have never been in a place where that much destruction's been done.

After the Storm, Orange, Texas, 9/14/08

The water was so deep that it caused most of the coffins in the cemetery to come to the surface and many to float.

It's very weird, isn't it? Hard to get used to seeing that kind of thing.

I can only imagine the sadness and horror of relatives of people buried there or who may recognize the coffins.
