God has created such beauty for us to look at, and here we are in a world of countries, each fighting to achieve the best of everything. Largest cities, most money and power, strongest army, on and on and on. With a swipe of His mighty hand, human achievement belittled to mud and mess. What is most important in your life? I see this disaster in Japan as a bold reminder that nothing of this world is worth anything. It's all meaningless, and we are not to grasp onto it (the world) in our attempts to feel worth or a sense of entitlement or safety.
God brings peace, and if it takes a terrible disaster like that in Japan to get people to realize He is real, so be it. Praying for them, praying for us all.
Here is a link that shows satellite photos of Japan before and after the earthquake/ tsunami. Powerful.

I think its amazing that we have this false sense of security weather it be in money or in japans case, structural. Its important to know that nothing in this world will last. God is the only sense of security we need.
