Kirk Cameron: God sent Hurricanes Harvey, Irma for 'humility, awe and repentance'

Quote
"Remind them that God is the blessed controller of all things," he said. "He is the one who gives us peace, security and strength in the midst of the storm and that he uses this to point us to him and to his care for us."

Jennifer Lawrence blamed Mother Nature and Donald Trump for Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, but Kirk Cameron has his own ideas on who sent them.

The actor said the hurricanes are "a spectacular display of God’s immense power" and he didn't send them without reason.

"When he puts his power on display, it’s never without reason. There’s a purpose. And we may not always understand what that purpose is, but we know it’s not random and we know that weather is sent to cause us to respond to God in humility, awe and repentance," he said in a video on Facebook.

The 46-year-old said the hurricanes should remind us that God "supplies our life, breath and everything else so that you and I reach out to him."

He asked his fans to use his remarks about the hurricanes as a way to answer their childrens' questions about why the storms were sent.

The actor recorded the video from an airport in Orlando after spending the week there for work.

Jeffress: Sticking with the one who is sticking with us

A pastor and advisor to President Donald Trump says a religious council that formed during the campaign is maintaining a presence in the White House.

Some business leaders and other consultants have bowed out of advisory councils, even causing them to shut down, but pastor Dr. Robert Jeffress says the evangelical advisory council that formed during the campaign is not going to abandon the President.

"There are no perfect presidents or pastors," Jeffress says of Trump. "But the fact is this president has done more to reach out to the faith community than any president in history."

"And people who love Jesus know that when someone is down that person needs God more, not less," Metaxas said of Trump.

Right now I am placing my faith in my concrete walls, aluminum shutters and my roof. Amen!

It also pays to live on the 2nd floor.

I am hoping for the best and have prepared for the worst. I have ridden out storms in my condo for 30 years and have faith in the building.
