PLEASE PRAY FOR OKLAHOMA

Five confirmed tornadoes hit parts of

Oklahoma late yesterday afternoon.

There were 8 confirmed deaths...60 injured

and the Governor expects that to rise today.

Before I go any further please pray for a

family that lived outside of Piedmont.

The mother is expecting a child and she took

cover inside her home with 3 small children.

The mother is in the hospital...her 5 year old

daughter is in the hospital in critical condition...

their 15 month old son died in the hospital

last night and their 3 year old son is missing.

Their home was one of several, custom built homes

that were reduced to the slab in some cases.

These homes were built around a little lake and

from the pictures shown at least one third of the

lake is covered with wood splinters and boards

and this is what they are sifting through in boats,

to try to find this precious 3 year old. They searched

until 1130 pm last night and were back at day light

to search again.

The housing addition was called Falcon Lake.

This family has suffered the worst of worst

nightmares. Their name is the Hamil family, if

I spelled their name right and they say there is a lot

of information from their family and friends on

face book...I don't do face book, so I don't know.

The 3 year old missing boy is named Ryan Hamil.

Three people died driving a long I-40.

Many, many animals died...one miracle...the

tornado picked up a horse and dropped him

in an above ground swimming pool 150 feet

later. The horse they say is fine but I bet

he will be very spooked when a

thunderstorm comes...the water in the pool,

probably kept his legs from breaking.

I was reading a comment that Becca left me

in regards to the Joplin tornado.

She said this seems to be the year for people

dying in tornadoes. She is right. I cannot

remember a year that so many died related

to tornadoes...especially with advanced

technology to just about tell you the minute it

is coming to your town.

One home was a 3 story reduced to the front

ground level where the safe room is. The

owner and his family walked out.

One home burned to the ground a year a go

and they just finished rebuilding it and the

tornado leveled it.

These tornadoes also caused one death in

Kansas and three in Arkansas.

I saw some coverage of the tornado that

hit Alabama one month ago and it still

looks just like Joplin does now.

My prayers are with anyone that has

suffered such terrible loss and especially

the Hamil family and with the searchers

as they look for their 3 year old son.

Thank you for your prayers and for visiting

me today.

YOU ARE SPECIAL!!!!
