The tragedy In Texas just does not seem to be coming to an end. Just Horrendous!. So sorry....
 
I don't know man, Ive been keeping my eye on this "prayer" thing for awhile now, and well, I don't want to alarm anyone, but it appears that it never works. Im going to go out on a limb here and say it wont help this time either. Lets all observe it together and see if JimH52's prayers are answered. Should we give it a day? Two days tops.

Prayer may help but it helps in different ways.


Houston Woman Has Emotional Reunion With Man Who Saved Her From Flood - ABC News


A woman who was rescued from her car during the flash flooding in Houston on Tuesday found out that her "guardian angel" came in the form of her granddaughter's teacher.

Glenda Reynolds was in her car with her dog when the water began to rise around her.


"I thought, OK this is the way I'm going to go, me and my puppy," she told ABC News-owned station KTRK, noting how she can't swim.

Steven Shannon, a music teacher, happened to be standing on the overpass above the road where Reynolds was trapped and he went into the water to save her, along with two other unidentified passers by.

"When you see somebody in need, you don't think about any consequences. You just jump in and do what you need to do," Shannon said to KTRK.

Shannon left the scene shortly after Reynolds was safe, so they did not get a chance to speak until the day after the rescue. By that point, one of Shannon's students had texted him to let him know that the woman he saved was their grandmother.

"Love is the thread that holds us all together that connects us all whether we are complete strangers or we've known each other for years," Shannon said to KTRK.

Heavy rains have flooded parts of Houston since Saturday and because the ground is so dry, it will no longer absorb the rain, causing flooding. At least 18 people from across the state have died as a result of the weather and eight people are missing.
