Good morning.
The past few days, I have been pulling up YouTube and these Tsunami videos have been coming up. Being the weather person that I am, I started watching a few of them. The ones that kept coming up were of the tsunami in March 2011 in Japan. It was overwhelming the amount of destruction and damage caused by it. It was a nightmarish experience I’m sure.
All throughout the videos, you can hear the warnings. They are in Japanese, but the words are written across the screen, and the alarms, the man talking, over and over again.
As I watched, I noticed time and time again, people not heeding the warnings. Curious to take a look or not thinking much about it, “we’ve had these before” attitude. Some people went down to the water and others carried on like business as usual (you could see cars going back and forth and crossing the bridges). The videos show people running at the last minute, or trying to drive away, and even being pulled out putting others in danger. They had no idea their lives were going to change that instant. That night some of the survivors were standing on rooftops with the only light being the fire on the water.
This morning when I woke up, I just kept hearing over and over: “heed the warnings.” The Spirit is talking all the time. It made me pray to be in tune with what the Spirit is doing and to stay ready for whatever the Spirit says for us to do, and pay attention to where it comes from.
Pretty sobering thoughts. I feel like I’ve been “waiting” in my spirit lately. It really is true that things are going to change. Lord help us be ready when it comes.
Glad to be feeling better. And hope to see you soon.
