Dennis is on its way into Alabama. It appears the center of the storm will miss Montgomery but we'll still get some strong winds. We won't have power for a day or two -- best case scenario.
"The men were amazed, and said, 'What kind of a man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?'" (Mark 4:41).
God is sovereign over Dennis. Dennis obeys every word that proceeds from God... In fact, it is the power of God that sustains Dennis: "... in Him all things hold together" (Col. 1:17). He is the power that holds atoms together -- if He lets go, all things will simply cease to be.
What is our response to the author of this storm? Will we curse Him or worship Him? In His wisdom He works all things for good of those who love Him.
O Lord, be merciful upon us. Yes, we do not even deserve to live a single moment for we are all sinners and from our hearts proceed all sorts of vile and evil things. But in Christ, you have spared us from eternal punishment by laying it all on Him. We appeal to Your covenant -- spare the righteous and the unrighteous to demonstrate your patience and steadfast love. Blessed be Your name, O Lord! For You are great! Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. May Your name be proclaimed in all the earth. Amen.
