I’m writing this post from the Dolphin Hotel, at Epcot
Center, Florida—a tag-along at my Jim’s conference. The first night we were
here we watched the Disney Hollywood fireworks from our hotel room. They
sparkled and fizzled. We oohed and ahhed.
The second night we watched the Epcot fireworks from the World
Showcase—up close and in person. The fireworks sparkled and fizzled, boomed and
soared. We oohed and ahhed, cheered and shouted.
Last night we watched the fireworks again from our hotel
room. This fireworks display lasted more than two hours and it was spectacular.
The sky was bright as daytime. The flashes and booms exploded in the night,
filling the entire sky over all the Disney theme parks with fireworks.
This display of lightning and thunder was put on by God.
Living in California we have sunshine most months; rain in a
few; snow in mountain regions. Our Yahoo WEATHER ALERTS read: mostly sunny with
winds up to 20 mph.
Hold on to your sun bonnet.
Last night we were treated to an example of God’s power and
majesty in nature through the miracle of weather; God’s way to transfer energy,
heat and water across this amazing planet. It was a breathtaking reminder of
God’s majesty and power; a not-so-subtle reminder that our God is big and we
are small.
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, thank you for reminders that—as master
of the universe—you are in charge. Show us more examples today of your awesome
glory. Help us worship your power more every day. Amen.
WHAT ABOUT YOU? When was the last time God knocked your
socks off with His awesome power?

Carol, you're so witty... He's "in charge" !! Hee hee, glad you're enjoying Florida!!
I saw a thunder, lightning and rain storm while having tagged-along with my husband to meetings in Georgia quite a few years ago. I was glued to the hotel window having never witnessed such a storm before. It was awesome. It was wonderful being warm and dry while experiencing the storm. Thank you Jesus.
