Natural Disaster

[other one]

I'd have to agree with Neb also, Yellowstone, when it goes will take a lot of things and people with it and pretty much ruin our sunny days for years.

An astroid would pretty much do the same.

The bird flue that I keep hearing is coming would be my third, for it will turn people against each other from fear of contact.

Called me paranoid... but I am terified of tornadoes.. I live in a part of this country(USA) where I only get the after effects of a hurricane.. I just experienced my first earthquake a few months ago.. it was freaky.. but we just thought it was my schools heating system... I dotn' have much of a fear of earthquakes and I only fear those hurricanes when they are down by florida..

Oh yes, Tsunami.. if i lived in that area that gets Tsunamis.. i woudl be afraid...

However.. even though I dont' live in an area where we get tornadoes often. I am terrified of them..... I saw one when I was 6 as we dropped my dad off at the air port.. it came within 10 miles of my house.. since which point.... I have a fear of every thunderstorm that there will be a tornado.. and I have had nightmares about these and everythign since I was little...

I am terrified of tornadoes...

I said other, because you never mentioned fire and that's what scares me the most.

My thoughts exactly. Being burned alive is the only way I would not want to die. I've lived through tornadoes and earthquakes. I even woken-up under inches of ashes from the Mount St. Helens eruption years ago. The supervolcano would be horrendous. With something like that that affects a whole country, it would be horrible because where could you go?

Fire is scary. Being crushed is also scary. But I do like to watch hurricanes and tornados. Earthquakes really do not scare me, as well as volcanos. I've been shook out of bed when I was in Alaska, as well as had ash dumped on me by Mount Spur. For me it's not really the event, it's where I'm at when the event happens. Go figure.

There is no such thing as a natural desaster. The Lord is in charge of everything.

De 32

39 'Now see that I, even I, am He, And there is no God besides Me; I kill and I make alive; I wound and I heal; Nor is there any who can deliver from My hand.

Isa 45

7 I form the light and create darkness, I make peace and create calamity; I, the Lord, do all these things.'

Col 1

16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him.

Proverbs 1

24 Because I have called and you refused, I have stretched out my hand and no one regarded,

25 Because you disdained all my counsel, And would have none of my rebuke,

26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your terror comes,

27 When your terror comes like a storm, And your destruction comes like a whirlwind, When distress and anguish come upon you.

28 "Then they will call on me, but I will not answer; They will seek me diligently, but they will not find me. 29 Because they hated knowledge And did not choose the fear of the Lord,

Luke 13

2 And Jesus answered and said to them, "Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things? 3 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.

amen ruah!!!

... wow.. I hadn't thought of fire though... yeah.. that takes the cake...

lived in tornado alley almost all my life..... i am the one that stays out and watches for them.... my brother reminded me that i was the one that would get on the roof to see if there was one around..... seen tails all around us at times, i watch as one passed right over the top of our house.....

huricanes..... was out watching the storm (David in 79) at the beach, and my friends and me were daring each other to drive thru the water as it was rushing over the road going back to the ocean..... needless to say, no one drove thru it...

inikki .... in hawaii, was outside most of the time during that storm,

winterstorms in Iceland, dec 14/15th 1986, we had over 104 knot ( wind speed indicator broke due to the winds) and higher.... not sure what the actual top wind speed was, watch as my car moved sideways down the parking lot from the wind.

again, i was in and out side,... had to check on the generators and other things...

earthquakes, well, being stationed in California, felt many of them, no telling how many we felt and they didnt even register...... they ( California, ) are having about two quakes an hour... so is Alaska......

Tsunami, never been thru one..... have been dumped hard while surfing and swimming.... have survived drowning twice ( once the Lord saved me and another time a navy seal saved me ).....

do I fear any of these???? no, I do have a healthy respect for these, but not fear...
