Nature never ceases to amaze...

Nature never ceases to amaze me. In the normal course of things, nature is predictable and helpful: seasons change, the sun shines, rain falls, winter freezes, spring thaws, seeds are planted, crops grow, people are born, and people die ... and the cycle continues. All of that is amazing in and of itself, but when the powerful forces take a turn we don't expect, lives are changed in an instant. Tornados lift up houses and destroy lives. Volcanoes spew forth ash and lava. Blizzards isolate people from the necessities of life. Earthquakes shake and rattle in ways we can't predict or control.
I remember getting a call from my son when he was at Edwards Air Force Base in California. With an earthquake well over 75 miles away, he woke up because things were moving and shaking ... and his fear was expressed when he said, "Dad, there was nothing I could do to stop it."
Is it any wonder that God chose the forces of nature to exact his judgment upon his people?
