SHADOWS IN JERICHO

  Signed, Sealed, and Delivered By Randy Nelsen Have you ever gone to the mailbox and found that the letter you deposited the day before is still sitting there, in the box? Don't you hate that. You start to get mad and then you suddenly realize that the letter is missing something very important, a stamp. Stamps are very important, because without a stamp the letter is not certified. You can put the letter in the mailbox as many times as you want but  without the stamp the mailman is not going to pick it up and deliver it the proper address and  intended destination. You might be thinking, so what!Whats the point, why i am wasting your time talking about stamps and mailboxes. There is an important lesson here if we just stop and take a closer look. You see, our life is like a letter, and we are like the envelopes that these letters carry.

  In certain parts of the country Storms are a frequent and often tragic natural phenomena. It is not unusual to see devastating hurricanes and tornadoes in these places.These deadly storms have unfortunately become a way of life for the people that inhabit these regions. There are certain Midwestern states that  frequently have devastating weather systems. The People who live there often build storm cellars underground near their houses so that they can quickly reach safety when a dangerous weather event occurs. I think that we can also learn something important from the Storm Cellar.
