Answer:
Firstly, let us imagine a student who just left happily all his family in Samar or Leyte after his semester break and comes to Manila. Few hours after his arrival in Manila, he hears about the calamity and unfortunately, all his family passed away. I am sure that at first glance anyone would think about misfortune. Some can even ask, “why not me? Why them?” why only bad things happen to me? I am doing my best to do everything according to Lord’s commandments so why these happen to me? And the conclusion of our thought can be one of the following: God does not love me; there is no God because no God can accept such things; God is punishing me, and so on. Actually, I think that it is a normal way of thinking for every human being in front of these situations. Having lost a family is not the same as having lost a million pesos. In fact, we can gain money back but never someone who pass away and worst of all, our family members. Nevertheless, I think that our thought and our way of perceiving God should not remain at that level.
On the other side, when my parents gave me birth, they never wanted me to suffer; rather, they did their best to make me feel that they love me and are struggling to provide a better future for me. In connection with this affirmation, when God creates us, he never wants to see us suffering, mourning or crying, but happy. Who, therefore, is that god who wants to see us suffer, who created us to always mourn and cry? If God knows everything, should he not know that we are weak and due to sin? If God deal with us according to our sins, who would be save? To these entire questions, no one can say that he is in good relationship with God because he is worthy. All of us are children of God not because we have deserved it, but because He first loves us and plunges us in the ocean of his mercy whenever we sin. We should not therefore understand God as a judge who is only there to wait when we commit mistakes and he punishes us. He is first and foremost a God of love. He created us with love and deal with us through his love. Consequently, it is a mistake to see in the calamities of Samar and Leyte a punishment from God. Instead of running away from our responsibilities, and putting everything on God’s shoulders, let us be more and more mindful of how we use our world.
