We've had a couple of threats this year, but this is the first one that appears to be the real deal as far as hurricanes go. The first thing to know is, the mayor and county judge in Houston said to "hunker down," that it is safer to stay home than try to evacuate. The second thing to know is that we should pray for all of those in the path of Ike, including our friends and neighbors, indeed ourselves.
We will have services this Sunday, no matter what. If we don't have electricity we'll have an adventure, but it will still be church. No matter what we face, our first response will be "Praise the Lord, for He is risen!"
Speaking of responses, we are putting together a Response Team here at COTHA. This team will help deliver food and water to those who may find themselves without. We will depend on you to let us know if there is someone in need. If you want to serve on this team contact Sharon Cunningham at smcunn@aol.com.
The evidence of a broken world is seen all around us. Because of sin, everything is broken.. from the human condition to the earth itself. God is still God and while the devil means this for bad, God means it for good. Let us make sure, wherever we find ourselves with the winds and rain begins, that we are God's children, disciples called to reach out to those who are least, last, lost and lonely.
Know that you are all in my prayers. God's glory will be seen!
See you on Sunday!!
