"Are you afraid?"

A year ago today, bombs exploded in London, killing at least 52 people riding on the mass transit system. As with so much of life, British citizens couldn’t control whether or not such tragedies happen in their country, but they discovered again that they do have control over how they react to it.

One way they chose to react was through Alfie Dennen’s web site at www.werenotafraid.com. The purpose of this site is to “show the world that we’re not afraid of what happened in London, and that the world is a better place without fear.” Tens of thousands of people have posted images on the site, each one proclaiming, “We are not afraid.” There are pictures taken moments after the blasts. There’s even a photo of Mr. T—remember him from “The A Team” TV show?—and the caption reads, “I ain’t afraid of no fool!” A community of people encourage one another to choose not to cave in to fear, the real target of such insane acts, through this site.

As you listen to life today, don’t be afraid and remember: God is in control.
