Default Pray for the People in Southeast Texas/Houston Area

My former employer's corporate headquarters are in Houston. I had to go to Houston quite a few times from 2001 to 2015. One trip I made about 10 years ago, Houston had just a few hours of heavy rain, and I couldn't get from the hotel to the corporate office 2 miles away because Old Spanish Trail was completely under water right by the corporate office.

I just got a message on Facebook from one of my former coworkers who lives in Friendswood, a suburb of Houston. She said the road conditions are very bad in her area.

I am live streaming a Houston TV station (KHOU). The meteorologist said the Houston area will be getting between 10 and 16 more inches of rain between now and Thursday.

What a mess...keep the people of Southeast Texas in your thoughts and prayers.
