My prayers are with those affected by Hurricane Sandy. However I am always amazed that the loss of life is not greater. Of course even one life is precious. I see the limited deaths as being part of God's graciousness to us. If you consider the amount of traffic on the roads it is amazing how few accidents there are on our motorways. Things are bad in New York and other places today, but it could all have been so much worse.
I saw on the news that there were trees falling and crushing cars. Of course this is traumatic for people but the trees could have been falling on the people. Let's be thankful to God for His mercies and let's thank Him for deliverance. We need to repent for loving him so little when He has loved us so much.
When we lose a loved one it is natural to wonder how they are faring in the next life. I would warn against going to a medium to find out. At worst these people are charlatans after your money, the rest misguided or worse. We are told in the Bible not to try to reach the dead. The best person to call on in this situation is Jesus. That's right, go to the top. He is always available through prayer and doesn't make a charge. All he requires is that you look for him with all your heart. He has the answers to all of life's difficult questions.
