Floods, wind, fire. Is God judging America? What do you think?
- Absolutely! We have it coming
- He wants the people to turn to him—this will do it
- It our opportunity to show how good we are
- This is just the way weather works
- All of the above
I don’t know what God is thinking.
All those things could be true. After all, God says:
Isaiah 55:9
As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.
At the very least, God is showing many people that they are not nearly as in control of their lives as they thought they were. May this cause them to acknowledge God for who He is, and turn their lives over to Him, not to curse Him for allowing this to happen.
Yes! Lord God, bring out the best in us. Amen.
