Prayers for London

What a shock to wake up this morning to NPR reporting the terrorist attacks on the British people and the London Underground system. Don't know if I have any London friends reading this (it could happen, I got people in New Mexico and Oregon reading this...why not London?) so my prayers go out to all of us.

I thought British Prime Minister Tony Blair's response was fitting, and I'll leave you with his words:

'It is important that those engaged in terrorism realize 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 to 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 civilized nations throughout the world.'
