Good Out of Evil

PHUKET, Thailand (Reuters) - William Robins vowed Monday to change his life forever after the professional golfer from California and his new bride, Amanda, narrowly escaped death in the grip of a tsunami.

This reminds me of God's promise that he will bring good out of evil for all those who trust Him. Usually, great tragedies are merely an occasion for God's mercy. The death and destruction serves as a means for much greater good.

Like this young couple, many thousands (if not millions) will be forced to reevaluate their lives, how they live and what they believe. And despite the massive human toll, that's a good thing.
