As my neighbor found out yesterday, the rain in Texas is long dried up.
The ground is cracking and the grass is looking for a good reason to burst into flames. I would like to take this time to remind everyone in Texas and the rest of the world to be safe during this New Years Eve. In all aspect of your lives. Have a designated driver, someone to lift the lid and a bucket of water if your going to shoot off fireworks.
Where there is smoke….

Good advice, bro. I take it the wildfire was stopped before it reached your property?

About Me
Michael, a sinner saved by grace, sharing what the good Lord has shared with me.
Solomon, in the book of Ecclesiastes, said, “I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.”
If you’re not living for the glory of God, then what you’re doing is meaningless, no matter what it is. Living for God gives life meaning, and enjoying a “chasing after the wind” is a gift from God. I’m doing what I can to enjoy this gift daily.
Got questions? I’m not surprised. If you have any questions about Chasing the Wind, you can email me at chasingthewind@outlook.com.
