Ps. 26-29 [The Message]
Lightning and thunder! What a great display of God’s power. When men flaunt their strength, all God needs to do is create a thunderstorm to put them in their place.
The other day while driving home, a flash of lighting and clap of thunder happened simultaneously (which meant it was CLOSE.) I was just grateful it didn’t hit my pickup truck. Actually, an automobile is a safe place to be when struck. The current is passed all around you and then grounded through the tires.
Years ago, our next-door neighbor was struck by lightning while standing in his driveway. He lived to tell it. He was knocked several feet away and his shoes were burned up. NO THANKS!
