Inspiration in disaster (Houston floods)....



Today's blog is off the subject of painting, but living in Houston this week, we've seen amazing stories of God's grace and inspiration.  Since the title is Inspiration from My Life, I feel this is appropriate. Houston has been hit with a 500 year flood and places that never had water in the past are flooded.  Above are three pictures of the flooding in northwest Houston and the Cypress area from the rains that hit Monday.  While we always seem to hear the bad stories, this week the news has been filled with stories of neighbors helping neighbors.  People getting their boats, canoes and rafts and helping evacuate, groups coming together to provide food, water and clothing to those who had to leave with nothing.  We'll get back to painting with my next post, but in the meantime take a moment and say a prayer for those affected by the floods here and take inspiration from all the goodness in people when they come together.

Keep painting!
