Pastors Corner       
From March 6, 2007 Alabama Baptist Back Page


The recent tornados in Alabama (a record 13 in February) have left many hurting physically and many more mentally.  I recently spent a day in Lawrence County (Northwest Alabama) serving as a Disaster Relief
Chaplain.  Fourteen chaplains (including Ray Bateman from EBA)
went door to door checking on folks and to simply let them “tell there story”.  I met some precious folks and dealt with the “why” question as best I could with opportunities to share the Gospel.  Two things immediately rang my “awareness bell”.  We must be prepared for such seemingly “out of nowhere” tragedies both physically and spiritually.  Please, review your preparedness procedures or if you have none, get them in place.  It’s too late when the Emergency Management sirens begin to sound. Most of the ones I spoke with had only seconds to seek protection.  One family had never used their below-ground shelter but had recently checked the access door.  The shelter saved their lives as the house was moved off its foundation and destroyed.  Secondly, we must be prepared spiritually as to our connection with the Lord.  Again, daily communicating with God in that we don’t know what’s down the road, but He does!  May God bless and keep you safe. 

Gary Cardwell,
your Missions Director
