In-laws are right in the middle of the large fire in Oklahoma. Town was evacuated and sister-in-law and family evacuated their house East of town after mowing what they could. Things changed a bit so Wife's Sister and her husband went back to their house to keep and eye on things.
Wife talked to her this morning and my sister-in-law said that everybody was praying for the fire to miss them, and thats what happened. She said every time it came close, as slight change in wind would move it away or if the wind didn't change, a fire truck would happen to come by and keep the fire from their house and her in-laws house. She said this happened quite a few times, the wind changing a bit, or a fire truck just happened to come by at a critical time.
Kind of like the turn around on my Sisters health. I told my Niece that people on this forum were praying for Sis, but she laughted it off (Agnostic like her Mom), but I asked her if she had any other reason for the turnaround and think about it. She got a bit quiet then.
Sister-in-law said that if anyone doubts that God is real and the power of prayer is suspect, then just look at what happened to them.
Looks like they are going to be OK now. Just need to send up a few prayers for others in the area, its not over yet.
