Recently I'm seeing Chinese people here reading my posts.I know that there are probably millions of Chinese Christians. You have been through so many difficulties that you are now strong. After the missionaries left you became strong because you had only the Lord to rely on. This was God's plan for you. We in the West pray for you, but really it is us who need your prayers. Please pray for us we are so flabby and ineffective. Our churches are not keeping to Jesus only, but bringing the tactics of the world into our church life. We are letting the true doctrines slip away. We need your prayers more than you need ours.
I have written in previous posts about disasters. In the case of Concorde, decisions by people, plus other factors were directly to blame for the event. In the case of the Penlee disaster it may have been avoided if someone had made a better choice in the time beforehand and as a consequence brave men and the ship's crew and the captain and his family died. 9/11 was certainly the result of wicked men committing a terrorist act, but even in this there was heroism notably by another Cornish man, Rick Rescorla who helped many to safety and left it too late to help himself. In situations like this we see what the human spirit is capable of both good and evil. What of disasters that come on people because of the earth restless movement of tectonic plates. Often people live near volcanoes because the land is rich and fertile and they have the chance of a better life there when the volcano is resting. We cannot blame them for that but sometimes people become complacent...
