Under God’s Cover
This morning my 6-year old daughter wondered if there was a tornado coming. Out of fun, I checked the weather. Oddly enough, she was right. There was a tornado warning for our area. For the next hour, we should: beware. Laying on the bed, while trying to calm her fears, I said, “Do you know what I would do, Madison, if a tornado came this way?” “What, Mommy?” “I’d throw my body over you, like this…” I then, laid right over her, acting like a mammoth overhead-covering so she wouldn’t get hit by the imagined fray and swirling winds.
