In today’s papers, there was a picture of paramedics giving first aid and trying to save the life of the man who had committed the act of terror in London. It touched my heart and I tried to imagine how they must have felt. Was it duty, love or responsibility? I may not know the reason, but it reminded me of mankind. Though we were full of sin and deserving to die, God showed His love to us by sending His son Jesus Christ as our saviour. We did not deserve to be shown mercy but He did. All of us who are alive have been given another chance to accept Gods love and to change our ways because of what Jesus did on the cross.
Another point worth noting is that if we treat others according to how they have treated us, are we any different to those who don't know God? All God’s children are called to be light. We should treat others with love, respect and kindness irrespective of who they are or what they have done. It is hard but our light shines brightest by our actions.
PS: my heart and prayers go out to the families of all who lost loved ones or who were injured as a result of this. It was a senseless act and only God can truly comfort and heal the vacuum in your heart
