Ok,
My mom made the four of us evacuate yesterday because of the storm. My Dad had to stay because he has to work during the storm since he is a vice-president at UWF. It really freaks you out when your mom comes to you and says to decide what is most important to you and pack it. She sent our "most important things" with our dad to his office incase something happens to our house. I was really worried but then I thought that worldly things don't matter. "Don't store up treasures here on Earth". It's easier to not worry when I think that everything is in God's hands. You know the song Turn your eyes upon Jesus? It says...turn your eyes upon Jesus...rest full in his wonderful grace...and the things of earth will grow strangely dim...in the light of his glory and grace. Ms. Mo reminded me of that song the other day in an email. I feel peaceful. Even if our house is destroyed everything will be okay. There is not point in worrying. I guess I wrote this so I could see it in writing instead of just thinking it. Well, yeah. We are in ceadertown Georgia with our mom's parents. I hope we still get to go to Valdasta with the youth group.
Love, Nan
