A Stormy Night
WOW! Did the Twin Cities get hammered last night … one of those 3” rains with 2” hail and flash floods. I was sitting cozy at home watching the live news videos of trees down and lightening strikes and cars stalled on the interstate. We even made national news this morning … (CNN) manhole covers blowing off, water shooting up and out of storm sewers, broken glass and smashed roofs and buckled concrete. Hum … I wonder how my friends did out on the streets.
In the Hebrew, God is called ‘the heart-knower’, the only One who knows the thoughts of man. So, I figure when I’m thinking about my less fortunate friends, I’m praying for them … I try to keep my thoughts ‘righteous’. This morning, I’m thinking about Willie and Brad and Cool Harley, and others who probably didn’t get inside last night. Oh, yeah … and Fat Chick Rick. I’ve known FC Rick for years … he just moved back outside this last week. He’s struggling with an awful addiction, so he could use some special prayers.
I have a ton more friends ... too many to count. So, I’ll just keep on thinking … and know that God hears my prayers!

Hi Kelly,
I'm Rick's sister ~ we met a few years ago when I came to visit Rick (aka Fat Chick Rick) in Mpls, and you brought some food for Rick and some other homeless on a Sunday morning.
Do you have any idea where Rick is or how he is doing? I haven't heard from him for a while and miss him very much.
If you have any info, I would surely love to hear from you: hmoffie@hotmail.com
Thanks, and God bless you,
Heather
