Why does God allow bad things to happen? That’s the question on many of our minds when we see tragedies like this.
You and I are not immune to such tragedies:
"I never imagined we would be in such a situation" Watanabe said. "I had a good life before. Now we have nothing. No gas, no electricity, no water."
The best answer my faith provides is that we broke the world but God identified with our pain when Christ suffered. If this stopped at His suffering, I’d have no hope, but it is in His resurrection where the real power is.
During this lent and Easter season, I encourage you to think about the message in the story of Christ and in the stories developing in the world around us today.
