On May 25, 2008 I was at work
at one of the Major Trauma Hospitals
in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
I saw on the weather channel that an area
north of my residence was in a tornado watch.
I got off of work and drove straight home.
My thirteen year old son Joshua told me that we were in a Storm watch.
I turned on the weather channel.
I saw that my area was in a severe thunder strom watch.
My wife and I were monitoring the weather.
Around 1630 hours my son Joshua came up to me and said,
"Dad, an angel of the Lord spoke to me and told me
to go to the basement for safety
because a tornado was coming to are neighborhood.
My wife looked outside, the sirens sounded, and told us to go to the basement now.
We all went to the basement, and the tornado came.
The winds were at 100 miles an hour.
It was strange our house was not shaking, but you could here the winds blowing.
The tornado passed, and we went out side, to check for damage.
Our house had none. There was debris every where and some trees where dowe next door to us.
I thanked Yeshua, and praised His blessed name.
I thank him for speaking to my son Joshua.
