What's your House built on?

We survived the storm with NO damage to our house or property. It had to be God's hand on us because we have not found a single house that fits that description in the whole town. We don't have a fence picket or a single shingle out of place. All of our neighbors sustained at least fence damage or roof damage. We had NONE, Praise God.

Get this....we heard on the radio that it would be 2-4 weeks before power would be restored. We got it back at about 7pm this evening. The phone land line and DSL came back at that time as well. We are back up with all utilities and conveniences the same day the storm rolled through....Amazing!!! Now we must be a blessing to others since we are so greatly blessed.

Did I mention that when we were pouring the foundation of this house, Samantha and I snuck onto the job site and buried a Bible under the front porch and prayed that God would use this house for His purpose? Not saying that NIV Bible protected this house, but it's not beyond the Saviour that it talks about to use anything for His Glory!! Now off to find some wind blown souls who need to be ministered to.

Glad you made it. Our house didn't have any major damage, just a tree and fence down. Check out my blog for pictures and updated news. Electricity came back yesterday. Jess
