We've lived here for 15 and a half years and the beauty that surrounds us is breathtaking. Seeing so much of it go up in flames is not an easy pill to swallow. But more than that...my heart goes out to all the families who have had to evacuate their homes.
It really is a testament that God can give, but he can also take. And he doesn't do it to punish us, but sometimes hard things happen so we can grow. That's how much he loves us.
We pray this ends soon and the beauty of this area can one day be restored.
