The Hyatt Regency was renamed as the Hyatt Regency Crown Center.
We often hear of loss and disaster caused by someone getting careless. The Tacoma Narrows Bridge went down because its engineers built the structure on the cheap. Fortunately, no people lost their lives. At Chernobyl, arrogant engineers built a nuclear plant without rudimentary safety features. Hundreds of thousands of people were affected when the reactor melted down. In Bhopul India, thousands died in a chemical disaster which could have been prevented with elementary precautions and prompt action. At the Hyatt Regency, 114 people died and 200 more were injured owing to faulty engineering.
One does not have to be a terrorist to achieve massive destruction and loss of life. Carelessness, corner cutting, drug use, taking the easy way out—all of these will produce the same results as an anarchist’s bomb.
By contrast, Christ cut no corners. At great expense to himself he did the right thing at the right time. He waited until he was of mature age—until his “time had come”—before plunging into his ministry. Before selecting his twelve disciples, he spent the night in prayer. He waited just the right number of days before returning to Judea to raise Lazarus from death. Such examples could be multiplied. One senses that there was not an unnecessary movement nor a wasted moment in his life.
