The REAL Typhoon

BEFORE  and  AFTER the Typhoon 

The picture tells it all, doesn't it?  Look at the devastation!  And yet can we see the real typhoon...the winds that continue to weep with misery and grief from a community torn asunder?  It is one thing entirely to calculate size and strength and quite another to see the destructive power done to human lives that will stretch down through generations.  The loss of one life obliterates a whole chain of beings!  The deeper picture is this loss beyond human understanding.

In the same way, Jesus is at the root and we the branches of God's kingdom.  We date our lives with his birth--not just our own.  All of us are in his line and lineage from grace to grace in this life to the Life given for eternity.  Therein lies our only hope...
