Primal Power

We had severe thunderstorms last night . The rain began in polite little mistings ,rapidly graduating to silver dollar splats on the windshield of our car as we sped home . Once assured the rest of the house was indeed dry, we retired to our enclosed porch,where the overhang allowed us the luxury of open windows and the cool breezes. It was strange ,in the safety afforded us,to be able to have a "front row seat " for this amazing show . The darkened room highlighted the blazing flashes of lightening and thunderous retorts seconds later.Despite the trembling cat,seemingly plastered to my side, and the dog who needed constant assurance the world as she knows it wasn't to end , the experience was wonderful ! We were allowed to live in a house that didn't leak , our needs were met and...had the chance to view raw,primal, Creator power at work . The little sparrows and finches took shelter under the eaves of the porch and twittered encouragement to each other . Humbled by the display and its possibilities for creation and destruction, we were again put in our place . Knowing He is in charge , it is a very good place indeed !
