When what God allows or brings to pass does not compute with his intellectual understanding of the way God ought to act, then he loses what he would consider is his "faith." But I suggest his faith is in his own intellectual understanding and not in God.
I doubt that any of us can truly understand what it was that prompted God to either cause this calamity or to allow it to come to pass, but we must all recognize that "all things work together for good." And whether it was directly caused by God's hand or whether God simply did not prevent it, we must understand that his Holy purpose will be served in it. Frankly I see it already in the outpouring of generosity and kindness that is being expressed by those who call Christ their Lord.
