Nick, as I told you, it was only through God's will that the situation was not worse. Hundreds could have died, but God saved them.
Honestly for a second there I thought you were joking, then I saw you were a Methodist. Isn't everything that happens God's will to begin with? (That would include worse things like the holocaust)
The other day Texas was hit by several tornadoes. Fortunately, no one was killed. Many homes were loss, and there were injuries, some serious however. Meanwhile, old friend were posting "Praise the Lord no one died! It's a miracle!" Never mind that several people had just lost everything but their lives, and that less than a year ago, states further east got hit worse, and over a hundred people died. Guess God cares more about Texans than people in Tennessee?
