Grieving for those who are traumatized by this devastation. This only proves that everything in this world is temporary. I think it is in the Book of Ecclesiastes saying there that everything is vanity under the sun. God is all powerful. Whether we are good or bad persons, we are not spared of these fearful calamities. Made me realize again not to hold onto the fruits of our labors tightly. Coz in the snap of God's finger, He can take it all away. Prayers of peace, protection and surrender for all of us esp the victims.

Spiritual awakening !

[@reynaldomercado5525]

It was in Abra I experienced the most devastating sufferings, emotional pain, shaming , belittling in my whole life from her siblings abroad, apo from 2nd degree nieces who called themselves baptist christians, desecrating my wife's small hut by her own apo and nephew and his bayaws and nephews second degree when they made the hut their drinking alcoholics den, with the approval of my wife's sibling abroad. ; when my wife died, she was from Abra. The baptist church pastor did not even comforted us but instead insulted me during my wufe's necrological service did not honor me as the husband we were out of the service program, very painful. I cried out to God my Creator's Holy Spirit to guard my heart from pain.

sundin po natin ang building code of the philippines pag tayu po ay magpapatayo ng bahay

[@brettfleiner4906]

Agreed! Going cheaper isn't always better. So many buildings here are built by inexperienced or non-qualified builders or underpaid construction workers whose company doesn't care about building codes or standards. They cut corners to increase profits and do not care if people suffer long term.

[@edolympia6886]

This is where the risk is..it's a troubled world. Without God's protection, there's really no place to hide. What we need more to do is to pray, pray and pray!!!

[@khanky08]

Agree, kc yung buong second floor na bumagsak na bahay, mukhang sobrang bigat na ata yung upper part ng house, then nilagyan pa ulit ng third ata. And yung mga beams, ang ninipis and kulang sa bakal. 😔. They also need to check the bldg code if incase meron need irevise. Kc sa Japan, magnitude 9, very minimal yung nasirang structures. Tsunami yung naka pinsala sa kanila.

This is the second strong earthquake I have experienced in the Philippines and both times videos posted on social media show many families doing something extremely dangerous during and after the quake. People running outside into the street and standing under power cables! I know it's tough to avoid in the cities but it can be more dangerous than staying put indoors.

No matter how we try to view what is going on all over the planet simultaneously, Christ Jesus said that these days would be coming just before He takes back His body which is the church. Matthew 24 : 6 And Ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom : and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. People please understand the signs of the times and know that the return of The Lord is truly upon us. ( COVID19, Omicron, Monkey Pox ) These are some of the pestilences that Jesus was referring to. People we are seeing the earthquakes in divers places, also the ( Tsunamis 🌊 ) & these are also considered to be the earthquakes in divers places that Jesus was talking about. People please open up your Bibles, because this is ever ever ever so serious and the word of The Living God, it changes not & God is calling mankind unto repentance. ( Acts 2 : 38 ) to be exact. People this is not a game and the Bible is fulfilling itself at a very very rapid pace. People I love each and every one of you, but Christ Jesus loves you all so much more. In Jesus Name Amen 🙏🏾

I saw the same type of judgment during the pandemic, people who had a "nice" house were told they could not get any ayuda. No one considers whether those people worked hard to save a tiny bit over years and years to have the home or vehicles they own. A nice house doesn't mean you currently have a ton of money in the bank, it could just indicate well-managed finances and sacrifice. I know two families in my barangay that were denied ayuda because of their "nice" house but they had no income as the breadwinners lost their jobs thanks to covid closures. So their nice house didn't help them keep food on the table! Everyone's story is different, don't be quick to judge.
