When it rains, It floods

This past week our small city of Rexburg got on national news for a natural disaster!  It didn't even have anything to do with breaking  freezing temperatures during the summer.  We had a flood!  It was a normal Tuesday afternoon when all of the sudden it started to rain, and then there was hail, and then it transformed into a ferocious storm.   I was in the library doing homework while this storm was raging and then about 20 minutes later the security guards of the library went around closing the library for some unknown reason unbeknownst to us.  It was rather odd to be honest.  So I went home and then on the campus there was tons of water going downhill.  It was crazy!  There were some part of the sidewalk that were very calm while other parts that were like current of a river.  I then went home to relax temporarily and then Carla calls me.  She tell me that there has been some flooding at the basement apartments of the Birch (the complex she lives in and my ward).  She asks me if I can come over and help out and bring some men from the ward.  So I change my clothes into shorts and flip flops and start my way over and getting some brethren from the ward.  I walk over lackadaisical thinking the carpets have just gotten a little damp when all of the sudden I see a large group of people surrounding the basement apartments!  The water was waist deep!  With hill declining into the lower apartments all of the water descended in one area, the girls' apartments!  I go voer to look for Carla and I see her deep into the water.  What a woman!  So many people watching while others were loosing all of their possessions she was in the midst serving!  How lucky am I to have gotten such a great disciple of Christ :)  I then got into the very cold water and started helping out.  Many of the girls lost a lot of their possessions save it be their electronic devices.  Some didn't even manage to save those!  Through it all I learned I realized I don't want a wife to call me when help is needed and then to see her on the sidelines.  I want a woman where we can be serving side by side helping our fellow brothers and sisters.
