My personal answer to natural disasters is that the reality of life has hardships. Floods, earthquakes and typhoons happen along with sunshine, warm spring days and soft summer showers. They also happen to the good and bad alike. Therefore, they are not a reward or punishment or indeed, anything. They just are. They can cause suffering or happiness. To me, it is what we do with this suffering or happiness that matters. And again, using the example of Christ, this suffering/happiness is transformed at the end of all things and we never have to worry about it again.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." – C.
