News Update Pray for Houston & Instagram Worthy Destinations

This post is News Update Pray for Houston & Instagram Worthy Destinations. It covers articles that I have been reading recently from across the web.

I stand in awe of the the power of the storm impacting Houston and the South. It is a sad situation but I am humbled by reading the stories and watching on the news the love from people who are helping rescue those that are trapped. In addition, the stories about the businesses opening up as shelters are amazing. I even saw a furniture store that is letting people sleep on the beds and stay within the facility. I am praying for the families impacted by the storm.
