A Little Weather Story
Jul/092
Something really amazing happened at Sports Camp last week regarding the weather.
We had been praying since September that we would have a dry week for our camp. Rain would really, really throw a wrench into things.
Before camp on Thursday night, the skies opened up. You wouldn't even believe how much it rained. Roads were flooded. There was a severe thunderstorm warning an hour before our camp was set to begin. There were tornado warnings in neighboring counties. It was a big time storm. We decided to forge ahead with our camp, knowing we could go inside the township building at the park if we needed to.
We held our worship time inside, not knowing if we could play sports outside at all that night.
I kid you not…the skies cleared at the exact minute that we needed it. The sun came out. We didn't even hear a rumble of thunder the rest of the night.
At one point, the radar indicated that there should have been a storm right on top of us. Instead, we had sun.
You will never convince me that God didn't direct those storms right around us. It's one of the clearest and most immediate answers to prayer that I've ever seen.

This was pretty amazing. There was just enough rain that day for the township to open up the building, which allowed us to begin that night inside. This was the night we were talking with the kids about Christ. As it all turned out, we had a nice quiet inside room with no distractions.
