Tropical Storm Florence drops staggering rainfall totals

[@bobbyharris3483]

Bless all that are affected and they get the assistance they need ASAP

[@kevinoglesby8001]

Every time there is a hurricane the people are warned to leave over and over again and stay. Then all these dummies are calling 911 crying to get rescued two hours into the storm. Then first responders have to go out in the middle of the storm and risk their lives saving them. Ridiculous !

[@Mike-01234]

Why do they need rescue when News media drive a van in there ??? All for he cameras that's all a rubber raft is all you need or just walk ride a bike if you have a lifted truck drive out.

[@Panamaschild]

Seeing comments of those with no empathy for others is disheartening. Absolutely no mercy in your hearts. Saying that people should just be left to die if they didn't evacuate because they were given a warning. A lot of these people have probably been living in these areas for decades and lived through lots of bad weather, but nothing bad enough that warranted them needing to leave. It's just that this time, was different than the others. I pray that people will stop speaking as though human life is like a piece of trash, and start talking like it actually has some value.

[@Snagglefratz]

It's hard to leave when your home is all you have.

[@dsantamaria713]

Naturally you attempt to save people. That said, they were offered various ways to evacuate and didn't. No one wants to leave home, that is our safe place, however, by not leaving you have also put an unnecessary burden to the rescue teams who could be dealing with those who are ill or fragile. Is it not better to be safe than sorry? Is it not better to do your part in being safe? Just because you have not seen something before, is no guarantee that you won't. Please, in the future, consider your options more carefully, and think of those who will have to put their life on the line to save yours if they can.

They’ve been told to leave but no they think it’s not going to be that bad an they’ve been through it before. Then they should just stay. This is what cost the tax payers a lot of money to find these stupid people an rescue them. They made their Choice an they should live with it.

[@nerblebun]

Scrappinpinkhappy: Most of the people are rescued by citizen volunteers. Dozens of good ol boys from several SOUTHERN STATES haul their boats & inflatables hundreds of miles just to help folks in flooded areas.

At least with their power out, there should be less risk of fire.

Hopefully they turned off, unplugged, everything, even though the electric is off from the utilities area.

HOW TO BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (BAPTIZED IN THE SPIRIT) This is a gift offered to every believer in Jesus Christ and His atoning sacrifice on the Cross for our redemption. Ask the Lord to give you a clean heart, a new and pure heart and to fill you with His Holy Spirit, which is His guarantee that you belong to Him, and which gives you the power of God to live for Him and in Him (we cannot abide without the Holy Spirit). He will lead you, teach you, correct you, empower you with His gifts of wisdom, knowledge, understanding, prophecy, miracles, tongues and interpretation of tongues and healing so that you will bear much fruit for His kingdom, which is love, peace, joy, kindness, gentleness, goodness, faithfulness, patience and self-control. NOW BE CONFIDENT IN GOD’S PROMISES! Because you believe in the Name of Jesus, you are a child of God (John 1:15 para) Before He created the world, He chose you to be holy and blameless before Him, having already decided to adopt you by the good pleasure of His will (Eph 1:4-5)

At this juncture, this writer feels life is becoming too short, and worries if the message of life will reach the people of this world in time. The extreme weather or lack thereof, around the globe has become relentless. We have severe droughts in over 50% of world, around 37% severe precipitation with rain, snow, or hail overwhelming the tributaries, and storms of all elements at an all time high, we need hero’s to step up. As one reviews the so called “Weather Forecasting Channels”, you would think “Meteorologist” would be on the forefront of “Demanding Building Code Reform”. Meteorologist sees firsthand the devastation as a result of “Inadequate Building Codes.” We must ask “Why haven’t they made it a point to change this disconcerting outcome?” Where a person’s home is no longer a shelter, their natural rights of prosperity, property, and sovereignty swept away in one deadly swoop. Entire family tree whipped off the face of the earth and Meteorologist want to talk about the wind direction at the Cubs Baseball Game. Where is their Humanity? Meteorologist are more about looking good then saving lives. Looking good on camera, as a forecaster, as a hero that warns us/reminds us our lives are not our own, that is all a Meteorologist is for us. When our $350,000 new home is built of twigs, insurance companies, FEMA, UN, Red Cross, the National Guard and the Government have more Rights than we do when it comes to getting our lives back. Why do we fight to get back what we already had and should have never lost in the first place if our “Inherent Natural Rights” meant anything?Meteorologist were at one time, folks that worked to protect our communities, now they only warn our communities, and walk through the aftermath time and time again, without a word of outrage.

THE GOSPEL - IT’S SIMPLE! 1. G OD loves us so much He created us to be with Him 2. O UR sins separate us from God 3. S INS cannot be removed by good deeds 4. P AYING the price for sin, Jesus was crucified for us, died and rose again 5. E VERYONE who trusts in Him alone has eternal life 6. L IFE with Jesus starts now and lasts forever God does NOT want you to follow a “religion". He desires a “relationship" with you, one that all believers in Christ have. HOW TO BE SAVED IN CHRIST A - Admit you are a sinner and repent of any known sins you have committed “None is righteous, no, not one; (Romans 3:10) “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23) B - Believe in the Lord, Jesus Christ, who died for your sins and rose again, conquering death once and for all “ For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16) C - Call upon the Lord “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9) NOW BE CONFIDENT IN GOD’S PROMISES! Because you believe in the Name of Jesus, you are a child of God (John 1:15 para) Before He created the world, He chose you to be holy and blameless before Him, having already decided to adopt you by the good pleasure of His will (Eph 1:4-5) Salvation is free, but it was not cheap. And choosing to follow Jesus is simple, but it is not easy. And anyone who claims otherwise is a liar
