Adrian Warnock gives us an update on happenings in London and what I especially appreciate is his focus on thanksgiving to God. He details a number of remarkable divine providences and displays of courage of the British people that helped keep this situation from getting worse than it already was. He closes his update with these words:
Today should have been a day of great jubilation for London following the news of the olympics. It was not. But Londoners have been through this kind of thing before- I remember previous bombings only too well. We will persevere, nay flourish in the face of this latest opposition. As Tony Blair put it
It is important... that those engaged in terrorism realise that our determination to defend our values and our way of life is greater than their determination to cause death and destruction to innocent people in a desire impose extremism on the world.
Whatever they do it is our determination that they will never succeed in destroying what we hold dear in this country and in other civilised nations throughout the world.
I will give the last words to blogger Clagnut
So thanks then, terrorists. You’ve just succeeded in bringing the families of millions of Londoners that bit closer together, giving them an increased love of their city and an enhanced appreciation of their way of life. You might have destroyed the lives of several hundred people, but – and this is stating the xxx obvious you xxxx– you’ve achieved nothing.
