My heart sank yesterday as I watched the news updates and videos online of the Tornadoes that ripped thru Texas yesterday. The exact amount of tornadoes is still unknown. There are reports that there were 12-15 or more! As many of you know, North Texas is where my family is, it is where I grew up. Luckily my family and all of my friends are safe and their homes were not damaged. However, there are hundreds of homes that have been destroyed and thousands without power. There have been ZERO deaths reported. Praise God! My heart goes out to everyone in the area. I can’t imagine how terrifying yesterday was for them. I can’t get thru any of the videos or photos without goosebumps and tears in my eyes.
