A very unique storm dumped over 2 inches of rain on us last week.
What made it unique?
No rain was in the forecast for that day.
Channel 7 KATV's News Personality Todd Yakoubian stated that it
"... created its own area of low pressure aloft and is spinning.
If this storm was over warm ocean water,
it could develop further and become tropical...
You really don't see this often at all."

I wasn't aware of the storm's uniqueness
when I took the following photos of the cloud formations.

But instead, I thought of a few Bible verses.
One was from Nahum 1:3 that says,
"The LORD has His way in the whirlwind
and in the storm,
And the clouds are the dust of His feet."
One was from Nahum 1:3 that says,
"The LORD has His way in the whirlwind
and in the storm,
And the clouds are the dust of His feet."

| Another is from Daniel 4:35, and says, "He does as He pleases with the powers of heaven and the peoples of the earth. No one can hold back His hand or say to Him; 'What have You done?'" Psalm 97 says of God, that "Dark clouds surround Him... His lightning flashes out across the world... The mountains melt like wax before the LORD... and Psalm 104:3 says, "You lay out the rafters of your home in the rain clouds. You make the clouds Your chariot; You ride upon the wings of the wind." But let's go back to the prophet Nahum. In Nahum 1:7-8, he says, "The LORD is good, a strong refuge when trouble comes. He is close to those who trust in Him. But He will sweep away His enemies in an overwhelming flood..." |
... And then I ran inside...
The lightning was flashing...
The thunder was booming...
And giant rain drops began pelting me!
