BAD FRIDAY?


 I hope that Robert's doing more than thinking of me and is actually saying some prayers for me to his mates up in the sky, particularly The Holy Ghost who, for some reason has it in for me going by this pic of the thunderbolt that woke me up at 12.30AM this morning.


An almighty boom and crash that seemed to last a few seconds woke me from sleep. I was a bit disoriented and wondered what had happened. At first I thought that the big winds had come back and had torn open the basement doors. Then I thought that one of the yachts in the bay had been blown on to the rocks. 

I got up and checked all around the house and could find no evidence of anything that might have made the noise. It was then that I saw some weird lights in the sky - but no thunder and wondered if it had been a thunderclap (not Newman's).

This morning I read on Facebook that others in Whangarei spoke of lightning flashes in the sky with no thunderclaps, weird light formations above the town and distant thunder without lightning. Not the things to be expected in a normal thunderstorm.

Are there any Christian apologists out there who can tell me if this has anything to do with Jesus Christ's Bad Friday?

It was a sign that Jesus is safe and happy in Heaven, along with Mr. Linford and Brother Benedict.

I did read that they were expecting extreme thunder up your way. Not to be confused with extreme unction.

Well done. The wit in Moera is far superior to that in Wainuiomata.

Mind you, he has an extra 't'.
