There have been many conversations by news and weather people, and those willing to gamble the odds -- all who had much to say about this "storm of the century."
Of course, it isn't done yet, Matthew, has rampantly run across several islands and now threatened FL, soon threatening GA, SC, and NC.
Unfortunately many lives have been lost, property has been destroyed, and Haiti has been hit in a way that that they are still struggling from the first hit.
I've heard newscasters remark, 'why, or when this horrific storm will go away' ... as if their questions would or could change Matthew somehow.
Questions - so many questions!
I've watched the hours of videos and heard the terror in the voices of the survivors.
Lives are shattered, hearts are fractured, and futures seem to be forever in shards.
However, tragedy does not have to impact us like this.
Also, I've heard the determination and the faith from survivors.
These survivors are the ones who will profit mentally and spiritually.
Why? Because their foundation is built not on their house, but on their strong faith.
Matthew is a strong name, Biblically speaking.
I bring that up because no matter what happens in this world, Biblically speaking, as a Christian, The CREATOR of this world, is still in control - always has been, always will be.
This so called 'storm of the century', is nothing to GOD.
HE is just trying to get our attention.
HE wants to be first in our lives instead of second, third, fourth ... etc.
We need to get back on our knees and pray ...
2 Chron 7.14
"...then if MY people, who bear MY name, will humble themselves, pray, seek MY face and turn from their evil ways, I will hear from Heaven, forgive their sin and heal their land."
