Flooding and blessings

I'm sitting outside crying. And not because we came home from church to four to five inches
of water covering a good part of our basement. But because within ten minutes of discovering
such a terrible flood, friends starting pouring into our home and served us in a way that
makes me sob. There were at least three dozen people who went to work and kept a
truly horrible situation from becoming so much worse. And even after their amazing
help, calls and texts and offers keep coming. I am humbled to the core of my being.

Today turned out to be much different, and much more intense, than I could have ever
imagined when it all began. But the blessings have been much bigger and more amazing
than I could ever have dreamed. There is a tremendous amount of good in the world.
And we were the recipients of more kindness than I know how to wrap my mind around.

Thank you, thank you, thank you wonderful friends. We will be praying for incredible
blessings to come your way, because you brought so many our way, when we needed it most.
