The recent news of the Tsunamis hitting many parts of Asia.. has caught
everyone’s attention.
Everywhere I went I hear people talking about this tragedy… 23,000
people dead.. and the numbers are rising!
It has distressed everyone … the scene of a Sri Lankan women carrying
and crying over her dead son is stucked in my mind…
I heard on the radio yesterday of a listener who sent in a text message
that went something like that.. ‘this disaster came just when we
thought we were going to end the year 2004 peacefully… hearing about
all that’s going on.. I feel so small…’
I couldn’t agree with her sentiments. I too feel small.
We’re so tiny… what could we really do, if and when the tall waves
come and sweeps over us?
It is only by His mercy that we’ve been spared…
On the contrary, God is big… And this situation is not beyond him.
And yes, He’s still in control… altho’ as human beings, with our
limited minds, we might need to grapple with his sovereignty over this
tragedy.
