Tuscaloosa Tornado - Smarter Every Day 7

I thought I would upload some footage to let you know what it was like just after the Tornado hit. We called it the "zombie apocalypse". I had many very very interesting experiences during this time. All of the 3 cities I have lived in over the last 10 years were affected in a major way. My immediate and extended family were spared, experiencing only inconvenience. The question is often asked, "why would a good God allow such things to happen?" As a Christian, the honest answer is "I don t know". I can however, report on how it changed us. We met and became very close to very many people we otherwise wouldn t have known. We were knocked off our high horse and forced to accept the generosity of others in thankful humility. I feel like this disaster has made me, personally a different person, (and one might argue for the better). To say "God didn t allow this" is a cop-out. He s either all knowing and all powerful, or he isn t. I happen to personally believe he is both, and every life affected was changed in a very specific way. I, like many others, began to focus on things other than myself and my own personal desires. I began to try more earnestly to understand Jesus s teachings about how I m to interact with others. We feel really blessed to still have Briley after this. Feel free to ask me any questions. This is probably the only video about the tornado that I ll describe my beliefs on.
