5 The Lord set a time and said, “Tomorrow the Lord will do this in the land.” 6 And the next day the Lord did it: All the livestock of the Egyptians died, but not one animal belonging to the
Israelites died.

Fascinated, I stood outside as the bright sky quickly turned
dark. This was not a normal darkness rather the clouds had an eerie color to
them. Olive green mixed with grey is the best description I can give the squall.
Some of the clouds began to move faster then they started to spiral. It was
time to take cover!
As I ran into the basement, the lights went off! Hard rain,
wind and loud thunder rocked the house but eventually it passed. Our house was
spared but the tornado did touch down with a wake of damage.
- I cannot explain the times where things happen all around me and I am spared.
- I do not understand the moments when problems are going on all around me and I am spared.
- I cannot fathom why a trial happens to some and I am spared.
Many other situations have happened that I cannot explain.
From my car spinning out of control and touching nothing to lightning striking
feet away and not harming me I have seen many situations where it could have
been me but wasn’t. I wonder why GOD has spared me. What does HE want?
- GOD spares me because HE wants me to show compassion to others just as HE has for me.
- GOD spares me because HE wants me to help those who hurt and show them a way to peace.
I can’t just say thanks for saving me and go about my
business. GOD wants me to interact with
others to make sure they are alright. HE
protects me and makes me whole so I can help others focus on what HIS SON did
for me.
- Have you been spared from the storm?
- Did something happen to the person right next to you and you were spared?
- Can you realize GOD has a purpose for you?
- Won’t you ask GOD what HE wants you to do today?
