took a couple hours to get them put out. Lucky they had a small river to draw water from not far away. Both fires were off an ORV (Off Road Vehicle) trail. We are in a HIGH danger of fire so there is to be NO outside fires. This could have been the result of a careless smoker but think maybe a bad spark arrestor on an ATV (All Terrain Vehicle) may have caused the sparks that started these fires.
I am lucky that my old police scanner that won't pick up police any more will pick up our fire department so we can keep up with the fire responses.
Sherry and I prayed for the fires to be put out quickly and that none of the fire fighting people would come to harm. I talked to the wind! We had HIGH winds and I spoke to the wind in Jesus name and told it to be still so the fire fighters would not have as much to fight against. Hard enough figthing fire without fighting the wind with it. After I spoke that Sherry gave her Amen. Within a few minutes the wind died down. I know the wind had to obey the name of Jesus and God's Word....whatsoever you bind on earth with be bound in heaven...if you say unto this mountain be cast into the sea...
We could hear the difference in the voices over the radio when they were frantic at first fighting both fire and wind and the relief and comments about the wind ceasing to be a problem.
Thank you Jesus for seeing to the safety of those fire fighters.
Speaking of forest fires...about a week ago I asked if any had heard of a forest fire up near Grayling, MI. We drove through that area last Friday and the fire has been along I-75 near Grayling and had jumped from one side og the road to the median to the other side of the expressway and was approaching Grayling. Sure is a lot of charring of grass and trees up there...even a rest area was in the fire's path. Glad on one was hurt in that fire.
