There are many questions I have right now, how such a humanitarian disaster can seemingly go on and on without end, with no clear indication that the powers that be have any idea what to do.
Why the world's richest, most advanced and most militarily equipped nation in the world somehow doesn't have the proper resources at hand to deal with a human tragedy is puzzling. Knowing how ferocious this storm was going to be, one wonders why military and social services weren't pre positioned closer to the impact zone before the storm came ashore. But that's for another day.
I wonder how the best of some people can be so overshadowed by the worst of others. Again one day perhaps we'll understand how instead of pulling together things degenerate into every person for themselves.
And of course there is the always at the top of my mind question. Why a God would allow such things to happen over and over again? The horror of the gulf coast must surely test the faith of the strongest of believers!
Many questions, no easy answers. But probably right now isn't the time for questions and finger pointing anyways. Instead we offer up our prayers, thoughts and hopes for a return to normalcy one day for all those so horribly affected by the events in the Southern USA this past weekend.
The visual evidence provided night and day tells us more than we can possibly process. May those suffering today be delivered from their tribulations very soon.
