Respect Protects


Respect protects so they should manage the damage and do it the right way if being respected is what they want. London, England, has had a lot happen to it. There was the Great Fire of London in 1666 which happened when the Great Plague was ending and everyone was just starting to get back on their feet after the massive disease. The fire though was not done on purpose. With such a little thing as forgetting to put out the ovens, many builds came tumbling down but luckily only a few were killed. The London Blitz of 1940 was definitely not by accident and destroyed many buildings and killing thousands of people. This left many people's lives very different than what they had lived before. And now, we are dealing with the horrible London riots where there are houses and peoples lives going just before our eyes. These people think they are making a statement by telling everyone to respect them, but really they are just being foolish. There is an economic crisis going on, and these riots are not helping anyone. Respect protects so they should manage the damage and do it the right way if being respected is what they want.
What we have to look at is that in everything that has happened before, there has been an end and Britain has made it. Each time the country and city has gotten stronger and closer together as a community. In these trying times, we need to work together, help each other, and stand up for what is right. If that means helping a neighbor or keeping your an eye on your teens, then that is what has to be done.
God will see us through if we just put our strength and hope in Him.
