Hurricanes and Prayer

Monday, August 29, 2005 Share: |

Do you remember Bob praying that a hurricane would be downgraded before Katrina?  I can't remember which one but I remember Bob praying just that.  Based on that example, I found myself praying that same thing about Hurricane Katrina.  And then Bob prayed for a downgrade in our worship yesterday.  I am left thinking either, "Are we crazy to be praying such a thing?" or "What an amazing God we must have if we have faith that he is powerful enough to change such things!" 
Keep praying for God to work in this terrible storm.  Maybe we will have a chance to serve in some way after the storm has cleared.  Pray that we might be ready to serve if the opportunity arises.

Case, I'm not sure what you mean by "downgrade in our worship", but I'd like to know. Care to expound?

I am thinking what Casey means here is that Bob prayed for a downgrade in the storm in our worship service. Just came out a different way. If I am wrong, Case can correct me! =)
