Hi Chip,
 
Up here in central Connecticut, we had some thunderstorms last night--maybe it was lightning behind the clouds.  Sometimes, it can be seen from quite a distance.  But who knows?  Maybe the Lord had that lightning flash at just that moment as a sign to you that He heard and He is coming soon.  I wouldn't doubt it--and I sure hope it's true!  I too, look out my second floor window in the late night/early morning hours, searching for some sign in the sky that He's on the way.  Can't be soon enough--Maranatha!
