The sun hung red

Up at 6am to catch an early flight home, quickly packing, dressing and preparing to check out, a towncar to the airport at 7am. This trip cut short due to the fires that rage just south of LA. Monday morning I had no idea as I boarded a flight to the coast, today like many others I pray for those affected. We pull over; he unloads my bags and pulls away. As I walk into the airport it catches my eye, the sun rising in the east, so large and still it looks like it is hanging from a string, smoke accenting its color - a beautiful blood red. A sign I think to myself, may God bless and protect our children and beyond.
