I believe that disasters like this happen because we live in a fallen and imperfect world. Not because God actively causes them. Human sin did not change the earth, but it left those who live on the earth more subject to its harsher elements. Perhaps the lesson is not so much "God is mad at you and sent a tsunami to punish you," as it is "when you live near an active fault line, don't build your houses and hotels on the beach."
I do believe that God works in a positive way through such tragedies though.
