Today, since Tropical Storm (formerly Hurricane) Isaac is bearing down on us, I will link you to my friend Robbie's poem about storms, and this one in particular. Here it is.
I've been privileged to live in three of the world's great cities (Nairobi, Port-au-Prince and AsunciĆ³n, Paraguay) as well as spending time in many others (including nine weeks in Paris as a college student). I just moved to a new city: Kampala, Uganda. I've also lived in smaller towns in three countries. In all of those places there have been difficult days, but I've never found a city or town yet where God is not, and I don't anticipate finding one in the future, either. The name of my blog comes from the song "Love is Always There," by Carolyn Arends.

Stay safe, Ruth!
Wishing you safety in the storm! Thanks for popping in with poetry even under duress.
I meant "stress," not "duress"!
Praying...
Hunker down.
Sending best wishes for an easy ride through the storm.
Hope all goes okay, just a lot of rain. Thinking of you, Ruth!
Loved your friend's poem and prayer. Prayers for you. Stay safe.
