Thanks Jonathan.

The Van Nuys fire has been put out, but the Monrovia fire continues to grow in the foothills which have abundant fuel to burn especially with high winds and low humidity. This fire has now expanded to 175 acres with 200 homes evacuated.

Lord have mercy.

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.

Glory be to Jesus Christ!
Glory to Him forever!

The fire is being fought and is now largely under control.
It was smoky last night and this morning, but the air quality is much better now.
The winds died down and humidity increased with a very welcomed on-shore flow.

Praise the Lord.

Please keep those of us who live in the West in your prayers as there is still abundant fuel for more fires not only in California, but in all the western states.

Lord have mercy.

p.s. Remember that this is a prayer forum.

Thank God !
[I saw this late last night, was much relieved, feeling worried for your sake, as wildfires must be terrifying.
I like the smell of wood burning, but nowhere near me or in a threatening manner, let's say !]

The fire is now 85 percent controlled, but the fire and smoke is driving bears and rattlesnakes into the nearby neighborhoods.

Please pray for our fire fighters that they may be safe.

Lord have mercy.

p.s. Any bears that are caught, are being relocated into other areas.

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.
