Ever since I was in elementary school, I told my parents and teachers I wanted to be a meteorologist. Now, twenty-five years later, I'm a meteorology professor at LSU, living out my childhood dream. I came to know Christ when I was 16, and He's been the foundation of my life ever since. To me, there's no better reminder of God's sovereignty than an old-fashioned afternoon thunderstorm.
