The southern Caribbean was 1-3 degrees above normal as Ian became a tropical storm. Parking garages flooded. Cars floated in streets. Roofs blew away. Thousands lost power. Ian made landfall and began to weaken.
I remembered Luke 21 reported bad things will happen; it this is not the end of the world.
Luke 21:25 There will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars; and on the earth anxiety of nations, in perplexity for the roaring of the sea and the waves; 26 men fainting for fear, and for expectation of the things which are coming on the world: for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 27 Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28 But when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is near.”
With global warming Category 4 hurricanes are becoming more common in the Atlantic. The worsening of storms is a gradual process difficult to discern unless you look at the historical records. It is not the end of the world, but is a source of grief.
