China Flooding
The United States is not the only place suffering from flooding. There are one million homeless in China from flooding. They have had weeks of rain which have pushed rivers over their banks in southern China. More than 1.27 million people have been forced out and some huddle on rooftops as the region braced for more downpours. So far 112 people have been killed by the floods in 12 provinces. The raging rivers have collapsed tens of thousands of homes. Crops are damaged across more than 2.12 million acres and this has caused more than an estimated $1.5 billion (U.S. dollars) in economic losses. The Beijiang river, converges with the Xijiang in Foshan and has swallowed a neighborhood that had been home to about 100 people. For those who read the Bible, read Revelations. I think we are in the end times and it can only get much worse.
