Typhoon Ondoy & Pepeng - an act of God or of Man?(Oct. 09, 2009) --
Last September 25, 2009, the big island of Luzon in the Philippines was devastated by typhoon Ondoy--killing hundreds of lives and leaving thousands of Filipinos in evacuation camps. Not even a week after typhoon ondoy left the country, another typhoon named Pepeng struck northern and western Luzon also destroying many homes and livelihoods of many, if not all Filipinos in those said part of the Philippines. Many provinces was declared in a state of calamity while all of these happen before our eyes but we have no way of reaching out to our fellow filipinos. What caused all of these calamities and destruction? Could it have been prevented? Definitely YES!

It is all about CLIMATE CHANGE. The warmer earth gets, the greater evaporation occurs from the ocean,etc... evaporation from the ocean creates thick and heavy vapors and are collected and concentrated as thick and heavy clouds...

What causes it to spin? The cold air above and the warm air below collides--causing it to spin--also causing thunders and lightnings... the heavy and thick vapors it carries drops--causing the rainfall.

Let me cut this short and let you do the research... SUCH calamities are caused by Climate Change which is caused by Global Warming which is caused by US. (no, not United States) but it is caused by us, we, or "tayo"... From carbon dioxide emitted in factories and cars to greenhouse gases like methane and nitrous oxide. From trashes in the oceans and rivers to deforestations. All of these in totality causes these calamities.

What was very disheartening was when other people call these mentioned calamities as "Act of God".. ie. insurance companies will not cover your car's damages unless it is under the term that covers "Act of God" incidents. I know that such are just a misstatement with the terminologies used by insurance companies but honestly, some people take it literally. How could we blame God for our mistake?!! ... Isn't this with no doubt an "Act of Man"?!!!

Visiting areas hardly hit by Typhoon Ondoy was a moving and eyeopening experience. Somehow, it’s always shattering when you come face-to-face with the effects of destruction and see it mirrored in the eyes of those who have been affected. The last time I felt this same air of despondency was going up to Baguio after the July 1990 earthquake and seeing buildings crumpled like an accordion. In Baguio as in Marikina as in Cainta, there’s the overwhelming sense of desperation brought about by the thought of starting over again and recovering immense losses. Most serious since the loss involves money and investments people built over a lifetime.
And for the penniless, there’s the challenge of appeasing immediate needs like hunger and a getting a roof over one’s head. You’d certainly feel powerless by the sheer number of those needing help, while the pessimist in you questions how far three cans of sardines, five packs of noodles and two bottles of mineral water will go.

Even the most destructive of floods bring blessings : a time for the poor to be noticed and a time to realize that the wrath of God spares no one.

Three days after the storm hit, the clean-up is underway and the city is beginning to recover.  Our electricity was restored today, we are now connected to the world via the internet, and in most areas, the water has receded and left a muddy mess to scrape up and wash away.  There are 4 families from my staff at World Mission Communications Asia-Pacific who have had anywhere between two and six feet of water in their home.  One family, The Tias, had a similar flood just a few years ago.  We have been helping them wash mud from their possessions, ranging from microwaves down to hair pins belonging to their daughter Erin.
The past two days people have been lining up at the gas stations and ATMS.  The shelves at the grocery store are being emptied and people are preparing for the possibility of another storm later this week.  They are cautious and not wanting to be caught off guard once again.  But if you ask most Filipinos “how is your place?” they will smile and say, “ok na, such is life.”  The resilience of these people is amazing, however, the looks of shock and hopelessness tell  you what most are feeling beneath the surface. Please pray that God’s spirit of peace descends upon the city

This is only trial to us and I believe that God calling us to unite each one of us to help those people in need.

The Aftermath of Typhoon Ondoy (Philippines)

by IJ0728 on 01/10/09 at 11:48 am

A reaction on the tragedy that hit Manila.

The aftermath of typhoon Ondoy left us with hundreds of people dead and missing.  Millions of pesos has been accounted for damages and Metro Manila will never be the same again.  This was, so far, the most tragic flash flood in Manila for decades now.  But the aftermath of typhoon Ondoy is not really the damages it has done to our infrastructures and, in my opinion (not to be insensitive to those whose loved ones has perished), not even the death toll.  The aftermath of this disaster is more on how it changes us and how others react to it.
I’ll be writing below some of the things I think was affected by this typhoon:

Spirituality

Philippines

« Beyond Your Eyes Can See

Typhoon Ondoy Struck Philippines »

I would say that this is the first thing that is affected by this disaster.  Every disaster that happens to human is a test of his faith in the spirituality he stand on.  For some, they would rather curse God for what happened.  Can we really blame God?  Well, I cannot blame others who blames God…most peple blame God if they cannot blame anyone with the bad things that are happening to them.  But in my personal experience, although I haven’t experienced having a loved one died in a tragic event and I’m not even hoping, I believe that most tragic event in our lives are caused by people too.  On the contrary, tragedies like this does reminds us of God and we can either strenghten our faith in Him or curse Him and die.

Attitude

said that there are a lot of sinners in our country that is why this happened (attached picture).  What she forgot was that there were also children who were affected by the flood, and worst was children who did not survive.  Yesterday, in the clean up operation they have discovered a child covered with mud, cold dead.  Can you really say that things like this happens only to sinners?  Did God break His promise not to wipe out human beings with flood because of their sins?  I don’t think so.  But tragedies like this can change attitudes.  It can make you or break you!  Attitude, in the first place, is how you look at something or someone.  If you have a positive outlook in life then probably you will have a positive and optimistic attitude on this.  However, if you have a negative outlook in life then you will be like this lady who just cursed everyone in the Philippines.

Government\

With the 2010 Election coming, a tragedy like this that happened in the middle of the election circus can be an opportnity for most officials running for presidency to show people how much they “care”…that is if they really care.  Take for example the photo here that has a small note that says: “Tulong galing kay…” (”Help from…”).  Well, if you really want to help do you really need to announce to everyone that you are helping?  Did not Christ said not to let your right hand know what your left hand is doing.  For God rewards OPENLY those who does good things in SECRET.  Don’t get me wrong.  Before Noynoy Aquino announced that he will run for president in the 2010 election I was going to vote for Manny Villar.  I am not against Manny Villar…I am against those politicians who are using tragedies like this for their own benefits.  When will they stop using the Filipinos for their own benefit that they may consume them with their lust.

Bayanihan

But then again, the Philippines is not all about corruption!  In midst of every tragedy (in the past and even in the future), the Filipinos will be like bamboos who may bend but will never break.  Like bamboos, when put together, we show our strength in times like this.  We extend our hands to help to people where help seem hopeless.  We can still laugh at our calamity making us the happiest people on earth based on studies.  In this time of crisis we, the Filipino people, always rise above the waters and many unsung heroes are made.
