Residents of the Gulf Coast are reeling from the effects of Hurricane Francine after it made landfall on Wednesday. Heavy rains and strong storms ripped across Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama.
Disaster Relief workers huddled in areas hours away from the gulf to see how they could help one the storm came ashore. When first responders give them the greenlight, they’ll work quickly to help those in need.
The storm is forecasted to drift up the Mississippi River through the weekend bringing heavy rains.

What drives you to your knees to pray? Kentucky church leader Todd Gray offers some thoughts in the Baptist Press Toolbox.
Gray writes about a wayward child, significant health issues, an empty church building, church conflict and more in the piece.
He writes, “Any Christian parent with a child living outside the will of God knows the experience of praying for that child day after day and throughout the day. Many Christian couples have had the experience of praying for a child through a particularly challenging time. The great news for us is that our children are not static, meaning that where they are today spiritually may not be where they are six months from now, and our prayers can make a difference in their lives. “
Gray also says times of spiritual warfare should drives us to our knees. “There have been a few times in my life in Christian ministry leadership that could not be explained apart from spiritual warfare. Those were times when I not only prayed for myself, but I asked my wife to pray with me and for me. When you feel that you are under spiritual attack, the best thing to do is get on your knees, if you are able to, and cry out to God to deliver you from the attack of the evil one.”
