It's true what you observed. We experienced this in an unbelievable way, in 2011. An F-5 tornado ripped through our community wiping out our home, my parent's home next door, our entire farm/buildings/barns--utter devastation, to the point that emergency vehicles couldn't get it to recuse anyone for 8 hours. BUT...God's people showed up in droves, with chain saws, food, water, etc. Over the next months and even year, people from all over the US came to volunteer, help, give and rebuild. I've never felt the tangible love of God so powerfully and I wouldn't trade that experience for anything because of it.
