Usually I would feel better about that, usually. But with this magnitude of a storm she is a rock crusher, and a tree ripper. I went by a house where the young people put up cardboard with duct tape. I have absolutely zero window covering material left. Believe me, everyone (and I do mean everyone) in North South East to West Florida are coveting your prayers for us. We all just got the bulletin that we will be under Martial Law curfew at 4 PM, until further notice.
Your prayers are important for everyone in this state. Not everyone could evacuate. It is physically impossible. There will be people stuck in traffic at the last moment. There is a huge majority of people who are first timers. As CC1 put it rookies. But they being first timers, they need to be helped more than anyone. This Monster Mother of all Storms isn't the problem. The fear of waiting for it to come for you, for everything you worked for to build. To watch it all taken away. For spouses to refuse to leave and want to make the beds right as the menace approaches. Or to want to brush down the horses at the worst possible time. I spoke with a brother who remained behind. He is by himself. He was promised shelter by his business. But at the last moment they changed their mind. Left him out. He told me "Elder, I just can't wrap my mind around the enormity of the storm. She is three times bigger than Andrew."
That's the problem, our minds conceiving what is about to happen to us. As it bares down on Florida. Which could possibly be a majorly historic life changing event.
