I have seen the chart for the global history of earthquakes, and without a doubt the frequency and magnitude has increased exponantially in the past few decades. I've never experienced an eathquake but I would guess it would make a person feel pretty helpless and insignificant. Also I would think it would make one marvel at the power of nature. Maybe God is using these natural happenings in a last days effort to wake people up and make them feel helpless and insignificant so that they will turn to Him before it is too late.
