In the Bible we read how God uses natural disasters as a means of judgement. Rarely is it fire and brimstone like Sodom, or an angel with a sword killing people. As I watch the coverage of the tornado and river flooding and rain hitting our area and as I hear the fear and the frustration in the reporter's voices, I am reminded how terrifying natural disasters can be. Weather is something you can watch or experience, but you cannot change it. Only Jesus can rebuke the storm and it stops.
It is no wonder how God uses the power of nature to show His mighty power to an unbelieving world. The amazing thing is how people will survive a storm or fire or flood and feel like it wasn't as bad as they thought it would be. They never connect the dots to think that maybe God is trying to get their attention.
Pray for us here in south Texas.
