Katrina Disaster

10th ANNIVERSARY OF KATRINA DISASTER.   The way things are going, things are improving in the Big Easy.  New Orleans is always a nice place to visit - having coffee and beignets at  Cafe du Monde,  taking pictures of photogenic St. Louis Cathedral, and going from shop to shop (I bought my first Lladro)  among other things .  A totally old world to first time visitor, unique and a personality of her own.

EVERY TIME THERE IS A DISASTER, PEOPLE ASK HOW A LOVING AND MERCIFUL GOD CAN ALLOW SUCH THING TO HAPPEN, ESPECIALLY TO CHILDREN.  Is there an answer to this?  Does God allow these things to happen?

The question that never gets a satisfying answer is one that tries to explain the relationship between good and evil, or between God and the devil.  When bad things happen, we always look to see who is to blame.  We want to know the hows and whys of disaster, as if understanding evil would bring us comfort.  But there is no easy answer.

Of course, indirectly, God allows these things to happen because God created the world and gave us free will and choice.  If God had not created the world, obviously, nothing would happen.  But when bad things happen, it is not God's choice, but rather that God allows things to happen.

Evil, human error, conflict, or the consequence of sin can cause tragedy, pain and suffering.  But God is never defeated by evil, and can bring grace and goodness from a bad event.  The silver lining of suffering is always the healing power of God.  In short, God never abandons us, and through tragedy and disaster, walks with us.  When there is evil, one always finds grace.  In grace, we find hope, and in hope, we find our comfort.

It's no surprise the way the liberal media and Black politicians are turning a great disaster into political and racial issues.  President Bush is not God.  How do you control 25,000 thousand people, the sick and the hungry, in a matter of few days?  The roads were impassable and there's water everywhere.  The tsunami victims did not do any looting and raping like those low-life in New Orleans.

  1. Once again Mother Nature has shown her awesome power.  I'm terribly mad at the people criticizing President Bush.  There's nothing to gain in blaming each other although I was very disapponted by the poor planning by the Democratic Black mayor and White governor.  Again it's all sensationalism by the mainstream media pointing the finger at our innocent President who's after all doing his best to keep things in order.  In due time all will realize man is no match against Mother Nature.
