Protected From Driving Into EF-1 Tornado
I have been listening to Pastor Prince’s teachings on Psalm 91 from his CD album titled, The Secret Place—Where You Find Protection And Long Life. I even memorized the psalm.
I teach ballet on Wednesday nights and would usually leave immediately after class as it takes me twenty minutes to drive home through the Endless Mountains region of Northeast Pennsylvania. However, I somehow took longer than usual to leave after my class on February 24.
During the drive home, there was a severe thunderstorm. I saw the sky light up three different times with lightning strikes. They were followed by pitch darkness while rain poured down.
After driving through a mountain pass where the road leveled off, I saw a line of vehicles from the opposite direction parked on the side of the road. I also saw a large truck with emergency lights heading toward my direction.
I could not figure out what was going on but I did not stop since there were other cars behind me. Nevertheless, I slowed down along the way and maneuvered carefully in a zigzag manner around and over small tree limbs that were strewn all over the road. I thought it looked like a tornado had just gone through the area.
It was not until the next day that I learned that an EF-1 tornado had touched down in Wyalusing Township the night before around 7.30pm in the area of Homets Ferry—exactly where I saw the tree limbs. The tornado was so strong that it even uprooted a tree.
If I had left immediately after my class, I would have driven straight into the tornado! All glory to Jesus for His protection as I abide under the shadow of the Almighty!
Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your wonderful teachings on who we are in Christ and on Jesus’ finished work on the cross. May the Lord continue to bless you and your family in Jesus’ mighty name!
