The Lord is Good

Yesterday didn't turn out as we had planned.

As I was heading out to pick up Chloe from 

work at the Child Care Centre,

Emilee got a phone call from the real estate 

agent that is in charge of the house that Laine has

rented for their future home. 

She told Emilee that the smoke we could see 

in the sky was from the area the house was in,

so she might want to go and check it out and

make sure all was good (Laine was at work).

So, Dave and Emilee high tailed it over there

and Chloe and I followed. 

The fire was quite close to the back of the house

and quite a few houses on that road. 

So, Dave was able to join 2 hoses and start wetting down

the dry grass and putting out the encroaching flames. 

The Lord was good and kept the fire from getting

out of hand, and even sent a water bombing helicopter

overhead to dump a load of water which helped immensely!

I didn't have my 'real' camera with me

but was able to shoot away with my phone. 

Today the fire has moved on but is still 

a threat to other homes in the area,

but the Lord is good to his people and we are thankful

that God kept Emilee and Laine's future little nest safe. 

I have uploaded a short video of snippets 

of the fire and even the water bombing!
