Rain!

We've had a little rain. Praise the Lord. It started last night and things are still wet this morning. It is still drizzling at 8am. The Possum Kingdom Lake area where they are fighting the fires hasn't received much rain as yet. From my understanding. But the conditions are much better with the higher humidity and cooler temperatures. We only got to 60 degrees yesterday and today is to be cool. If the sun comes out it will warm up. The fire is 25% contained.

The Wildcat Fire near San Angelo is 75% contained. Hallelujah! No loss of homes! Minimal loss of livestock! And they are having some rain! The new grass that comes will be awesome.

Here is a link to a map to see the burned areas from that fire.

Thank you for your prayers and please continue to pray. It is my understanding that the US Forest Service has taken command of the Possum Kingdom Fire. Thank you to all the volunteer fire fighters across the state for their hard work. And most of all thanks be to God for answered prayers, His mercies, and His goodness to all. It will truly be a good Resurrection Day! 

And now my prayer is that God will help them put out the remaining fires and comfort those who have lost so much.

Blessings,
