Last weeks tornadoes in Ohio were a reminder that at any given moment unexpected things can happen to upset our routine. We faced the possibility that we might have to adjust how we live our lives for a while.
What do we do when faced with trouble like a tornado or other sudden and unexpected disruption? The first response is often why us? But we are reminded by Jesus that it rains on the just and unjust alike.
A Christian’s response is not why me but Lord what do you want me to do in this situation? How can I be of service to Jesus under these conditions? Jesus calls us all to give our faithful witness and service under all conditions.
