Light Show and Fireworks

Last Wednesday Ken and Brenda were in town and we decided to go down to the Celebration of Light, a fireworks display set to music. We packed a picnic supper and had a great time. I took some pictures with my camera phone but they are still in the phone, sorry.

We had a spot right on the water and the folks around us had a radio we could here the music that accompanied the fireworks. That night was sponsored by Italy. Well last night, the show was sponsored by China, inventors of fireworks so it was supposed to be the biggest. I don't know how it was. We chose not to fight the traffic again.
Well this morning between three and seven God supplied the best show of all. A rare, for us in the city, thunder and lightning display that rattled the walls and flashed with such brilliance that it put the fireworks into a lower category. The music in this case was internal, provided by the listener. Mine was praise for an awesome God and thanksgiving for safety. The finale included a downpour and hail for added emphasis.

What a show. Brandy was not impressed, but neither was she upset. She lay with her head out the window taking it all in. Her attitude showed a level of comfort that we all should have in the midst of a storm like that. She was safe and her masters were there.
In the midst of our storms we need to remember that we are safe and our Master is there. Once we remember that, we can enjoy the awesome display.
