Acts of God

Whenever there is a great disaster (earthquake, hurricane, tsunami, or tornado) many people call those things "acts of God". I have always been uncomfortable with that statement; it inadvertently blames God for the destruction and death. Many good people die as result of tornadoes and I do not believe their death was the result of God's judgment on them. Check out the link to an article written by Heather Carlton who lives in a suburb of Joplin, Missouri. She was a witness to the destructive tornado that hit that her community May 22, 2011.

I want to thank my friend Layton Welborn for sharing this article with me.
