My community and suite are still recovering from the disaster that struck recently. A wall of storms with hurricane force winds struck late on a Friday evening knocking down trees, blocking roads, damaging homes, and destroying power lines.

Hundreds of people suddenly found themselves in the dark without water, electricity, air conditioning, telephones, the Internet, and television. They found themselves cut off from the modem world enduring uncomfortable heat.

The most amazing thing happened, however, as the reality of the crisis sank in: it brought out the best in us. While there were a few acts of selfishness and stealing they were covered by the wave of love that came from the hearts of so many.

People shared their food, ice, and gas. People who still had power opened their homes to those who had none. People rushed out to clear roads and homes. Selfless power crews worked around the clock to repair the damage and restore electricity. People gathered to talk, share hugs and offer words of hope and faith that God would see them through it all. Strangers came together as one family to help each other in this time of great need.

It was such a joy seeing all these people acting like true Children of God under the most trying circumstances. Life's disasters often strike all of us. No one is spared. We all get hurt and challenged. How we respond to them, though, is up to us. We can let them bring out the worst or the best in us. We can react to them like demons of selfishness or like angels of love.

May you always bring the best from your heart and soul to whatever life may throw at you then May you live all of your days here with so much love that Heaven sings and God smiles.
