Florida residents riding out Hurricane Idalia had to “swim out of their windows”: Personal reflections on innocent suffering

Hurricane Idalia slammed into Florida’s Big Bend area yesterday morning. Some residents who chose to ride out the storm at home had to “swim out of their windows” to escape waves of water crashing through their front doors. In other news, a fire ripped through a rundown five-story building in Johannesburg, South Africa, killing at least seventy-three people as of this morning. And today is the anniversary of Princess Diana’s death in 1997 at the age of thirty-six.  The day’s news so often asks us to consider the incongruity of innocent suffering with who we know God to be: all-loving and all-powerful. To that end, I offer some very personal reflections on suffering and look to David’s honesty with God in Psalm 3.  Author: Jim Denison, PhD Narrator: Chris Elkins Subscribe: http://www.denisonforum.org/subscribe Read The Daily Article: https://www.denisonforum.org/daily-article/hurricane-idalia-fl-residents-swim-out-of-their-windows/
