Thunder and lightning SMASH down upon this small asset-stripped Texan farming community, shaking the ancient wooden timbers (what?) of the Compound. Like no kidding, a ferocious storm, turning night into day with all the fury of an electric universe.
Yes indeed, the climate's changed with elemental, eschatological fury. And so we stand, undaunted, on the rain lashed porch, daring our adversary to do its worst.
Seriously, this storm's pretty crazy, be safe out there.
Apocalypse,
LSP
Last fall and winter, we in South Central Kansas could have used some of that Apocalypse but now considering that the wheat crop was a near total bust and we've been getting rain somewhat regularly of late, we're praying for moderation in all things again. Lest the basement flood....
ReplyDeleteMuch needed rain showed up in SE Michigan yesterday. It kept our Corpus Christi procession indoors. We've been praying for rain...it's no coincidence that it came yesterday.
ReplyDeleteStay safe under cover LSP!
If you pay the weather tax, you'll be fine. Better still, send money to me (bank wire is ok) and I'll see that your tax makes it to the right place. It's the only way to be sure.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, Wild. There's a sump pump in mine that really needs to be checked. Last time there was an issue it was... scary.
ReplyDeleteGlad you got the rain, DOS. Man, it crashed down last night. And congrats on the Corpus Christi observance, come to think of it, what stops a church from holding them (Euch. Proc) regularly, regardless of calendar?
ReplyDeletePowerful witness.
Exactly, LL. This is the issue. PAY the WEATHER TAX.
ReplyDeleteI'd forgotten you were in "receipt of custom" (Mtt 9:9-13) but given St. Matthew and apostolic precedent, perhaps all should be held in common? Send Krugerrands to DLC HQ. We can store the fund in the fiduciary monkey.
