Well, I just have to share my thoughts after witnessing the eclipse yesterday here in Dallas.<\/div>\n
It was an Absolutely incredible experience. And the clouds parted for us in a big way. I am grateful.<\/div>\n
\u00a0 Everyone who saw it to<\/div>\n
a person and tv reports described themselves as being very emotional. I think for many that emotion was a surprise. Reporters cried live on air. There was a togetherness. Many mentions of God.\u00a0 School children screamed with joy and hugged each other.<\/div>\n
\u00a0 It was a gift, like a valentine, a hug from God, for which we knew we were totally undeserved. God was showing us his heart.\u00a0 Complete gratefulness and humility for such a gift.<\/div>\n
\u00a0 Then overnight here in Dallas we had strong storms in the forecast. At 3:00 am, we had a deluge, and I\u2019m using that word on purpose. Heavy, heavy rain, extraordinary lightning that lasted a solid hour.<\/div>\n
\u00a0 I started praying the Divine Mercy chaplet. I wasn\u2019t too scared though because I was still feeling that warm hug from the eclipse, like a hedge of protection.<\/div>\n
There is street flooding this morning in places, but the main focus is still what happened yesterday, and tv reporters are still tearing up when talking about the eclipse.<\/div>\n
\u00a0 I see on Facebook that you all were at an eclipse event too.<\/div>\n
\u00a0 Thanks for reading.<\/div>\n
