They helped form the earth beneath our feet. They can bring both blessings and devastation. No human can control them. No man can fully comprehend their awesome majesty. No year since the beginning of time has the earth failed to witness their coming.
Natural disasters can happen at any time or place.
They can bring sorrow, but they can also teach important lessons about who we are, what is important to us, and what joys life can hold for every human being.
