Just finished taping up and boarding windows. Prayed for every tree on my lot, prayed over the house and family. I've done what I can now it's up to the Lord to do His thing.

As of 8pm there is a dusk till dawn curfew and the national Guard will be in control. I live two blocks from the Police station, in Oakdale, and went over after getting home from church to see if there was a mandatory evacuation. There is. I was told I can stay but there will be no help from Fire, Police, or Emergency personal. I guess we really have to trust the Lord. I'll try to keep posting as long as there is electricity. We are staying at home.

We prayed at Church this morning that the Lord would calm Gustav and now he's down from a cat 4 to a low cat 3.

Watching and waiting.

We may have caught a break with this storm. There is a ring of dry air that has circled around the storm that is keeping it from strengthening. Thank you God for hearing our Prayers. It is still a serious storm, and will be a strong Cat2 or a weak Cat 3. The pressure is increasing but the winds are not. This is according to WWL in New Orleans.

God bless and keep you and your family and all the children of God in that area.

I've been praying the same thing, calm the storm and have mercy upon you all. I've been feeling the presence of the Lord with each prayer. Thank you Lord.
