Bro these people are overreacting about a minor earthquake. I live in NY and I didn’t even notice it was happening until someone pointed it out. It felt a 18 wheeler driving near you

[patoheredia]

My spirit keeps telling me that it wasnt natural and that a device was detonated in tunnel system that resides below NYC. I am grateful to hear that everyone is okay. The GOOD LORD keeps NYC in my heart. Brothers and Sisters Im praying for you and for NYC that GOD shelters his people from the attacks of the enemy.
