We had a preview today of what the scriptures call "the wrath of God". The lightening strikes and the thunder shook the building, it was raining so hard the water was coming in through the cracks where the windows slide open . I have never heard noise like that. The wind was blowing hard and whistling through the glass. I was in the kitchen fixing lunch and got so scared (I know that is surprising) I went to find Scott in the other room. He wasn't going to admit that it was intimidating for him too, but it was! It lasted about an hour then settled into just rain but it was an hour that made me think about the storms you read about in the scriptures.
I started making cookies yesterday to take to some neighbors but we went to all of our Monday activities and I didn't get them all cooked. Finished that today and got them all on plates just in time
to go to the temple. We planned on taking them as soon as we got home but met Tati and her grandchildren in the parking lot and they came over to talk to us. Her grandson is leaving soon to go back to Spain but her granddaughter is going to stay and live with her. The culture here is so immoral. She so needs the church to help her make decent decisions that will bring her happiness. Wickedness never was happiness is not just a statement here - it is the way so many of these people live. So we still have plates of cookies sitting on the couch. Maybe tomorrow! We have really wanted to visit with the Nepalize couple upstairs.
Tonight at the temple there was this couple who looked to be in their mid or later 70's. They are infamous here - or so we hear - because they live on a boat and travel around to different countries doing extraction work. They have been doing that for 10 years. When hurricane season hits the islands they just keep moving out of the path.
