Pam from the state of Washington writes, “I would first like to thank you for all of your prayers for us up here in the Pacific Northwest.  The fires are still burning but we have at least gotten a bit of rain and even though the wind can make the fires more dangerous it can also push some of the smoke out so that air quality is some better.  We live in Yakima, Washington on a small horse ranch and this air is very hard on the farm animals.  Allergies are on the rise and breathing is getting difficult but at least we can stay indoors but they are out in all the ash and smoke.  I would hose off the decks and within 2 or 3 hours they would be covered with ash and even some pine needles and we are miles from the fires!  Thank you for continuing the warning for we are surely in dire times!  God is in control and it will be a time of great harvest as we labor for the Kingdom but it is still hard to watch so much devastation on the land.  Jesus is coming!”
