Piper is exactly right. “Does disaster come to a city, unless the Lord has done it?” Amos 3:6

[marshmallow]

And there were present, at that very time, some that told him of the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And he answering, said to them: Think you that these Galileans were sinners above all the men of Galilee, because they suffered such things? No, I say to you: but unless you shall do penance, you shall all likewise perish. Or those eighteen upon whom the tower fell in Siloe, and slew them: think you, that they also were debtors above all the men that dwelt in Jerusalem? No, I say to you; but except you do penance, you shall all likewise perish.

Matthew 13: 1-5

This passage makes it clear that God may, if he so chooses, visit disaster upon us but that not every disaster is God's explicit doing.

You are correct. Also, we are reformed because God caused it to be so. I’m thankful for it.
