However, this week, California experienced scares of strong earthquakes within 48 hours. On July 4th, we experienced a 6.4 earthquake centered in the Kern County city of Ridgecrest, near Southern California.<\/h3>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa\">Subsequently, on July 5th we were hit with another 5.4 aftershock in the early morning and a 7.1 stronger earthquake that had its epicenter near Ridgecrest right about 8.20pm that night.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<h3 class=\"_39k5 _5s6c\"><strong><span class=\"_4yxo\">First Emotional Earthquake<br \/><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa\">My first ever experience of it having been living in the Northern California for 11 years going 12. It was in the late morning, while I was seated on a sofa in my backroom, busy with my phone. Suddenly, I felt my sofa rolling.. I stop and tried to understand what was happening.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa\">There I felt that rolling again.. and it kept rolling for a while. Thinking I imagined everything up, all in my head, I hurried to affirm what happened. I asked my father-in-law if he felt something and he confirmed an <a href=\"https:\/\/earthquake.usgs.gov\/earthquakes\/map\/\"><strong>earthquake<\/strong><\/a> just occurred.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa\">I ran and asked my husband if he felt it. He was still in bed while my 6-year-old was still asleep. In a way, I was nervous and yet excited at the same time. Does anyone know that complex feeling..? So, that was how I finally experienced my very first earthquake.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<h2><strong><span class=\"_4yxo\">Second Nerve Wrecking California Earthquake<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<div class=\"_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa\">Never would I imagine that my second experience of it would be just a day after. I was relaxing and was on Facebook at the time when the second occurred. This time it was different. I felt the quake and it was strong. I saw our house \u2018moving\u2019. It wasn\u2019t just my chair or my sofa but the entire house moved. It lasted for a quite a while in which I was told it lasted 45 seconds.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa\">This time, I got my son\u2019s attention and he felt something. After the initial fear went off, he resumed to playing his games. I wasn\u2019t sure what I needed to do, to leave or stay. Finally, the \u2018moving\u2019 stopped. My husband and father-in-law who were more experienced than me, were however, calmer. My second time experiencing earthquake was more nerve wrecking, definitely.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<h3 class=\"_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa\"><strong><span class=\"_4yxo\">\u2018Is God addressing California Earthquakes\u2019? Where would I want to spend my eternity?<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa\">Back to my initial question, \u2018Is God addressing California\u2019? The truth is I do not know. But, the experiences did get me thinking about <strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dota.godsblogs.com\/inspirational-blogs\/crisis-new-faith\/\">my relationship<\/a> <\/span><\/strong>with Him. The truth is I need to address where I would want to spend my eternity. <span class=\"_4yxo\">If I should die tonight, would I die in peace knowing where I would spend my eternity? <\/span><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa\">Never be deceived that just because you were once saved, therefore you are forever saved. If for some reasons, you have kept your sin, refusing to give it up, this would be the time to do so. Go and get right with God. Be sure that you are ready to meet Him any time.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"_2cuy _3dgx _2vxa\">May God have mercy on my soul.<\/div>\n<div>Note: <strong>Like Us on Facebook <\/strong>if you support Daughters Of The Almighty (DOTA)<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Is God addressing California?<br \/>\nThis week California had scares of strong earthquakes within 48 hours.
