Where is YOUR treasure???

Hurricane Irene was frightful, but it provided a calling to commit our family and all we loved into our Father's hands.

But the aftermath was much more destructive. Below are pictures Duane took yesterday of the home he grew up in.

Notice the water line on the outside of the house?
Somehow our sweetie's picture landed upright amidst swollen walls & carpet...

Isaiah's photo landed right next to the shelf that collasped upon swollen wood...

Wet books & toys for the grandkids...

Judah's photo traveled down the hallway with the flood waters...

Flood waters retained in the dishwasher...

So, there's lots of work ahead of us! But thanks to a ton of kind people, so much was already accomplished today.

"Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." Matthew 6:19-21
