Twelve days ago the town of Paradise was pretty much leveled by fire! Dozens dead, hundreds still missing as people try to escape with their lives some had to flee even there cars as they became tinderboxes. The scenes were apocalyptic. I live about 150 miles from that fire but smoke filled the air , parts of California have the worst air quality in the world. I live in the foothills so it’s not as bad here. I have been trying to put the emotions, the devestation into words but until now could not. I just did not have the heart to even put it into words nor could I wrap my mind about what these people might be going through. Somehow though as tragedy surrounds us we pull together! We reach out we do what we can.

California has suffered with the wildfires. Homes were damaged and destroyed by the fires. Prayers continue there will be natural disasters. That's why it's important to pray however all persons won't believe in the power of prayer.

I do believe in the power of prayer I’ve seen how it works!

@Michellekidwell It is very hard to put something like that into words. It is so hard for those losing their homes and those losing their lives and have to flee for their lives.

That's devastating, I am so sorry to hear about all the damage the fire caused. That's all I know to say...
