Biblical Perspective on Hurricane Katrina

What should our response be to hurricane Katrina? First, we should fall on our knees before our creator and repent for the sins of our land, our state, ourselves. Second, we should thank our God who has shown great mercy to our land. Many thousands more could have died had the Lord not stayed His hand and said to the waters, “This far and no farther.” Thirdly, we should thank Him for the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, that lead us to repentance.
