Seeing the Light at the End of the Tunnel

I was going to write about the Royal Wedding and why we Americans should or should not care, but something more American has happened.

The announcement was made last night by President Obama that our military has succeeded in killing and capturing the body of Osama bin Laden. Our efforts are nearly over, but they are far from done.

Our military still needs to keep control in the countries that we are in, because I am sure that there will be retaliation. And his forces are far from being lead by one single individual, they are spread out in cells and divided. It's like killing the hydra, cut off the main head, and you still have to cut off the others. But it is certainly glad news that we have taken down the main leader and the driving force of all the terrorist actions in the world.

It disheartens me though that the President that wanted to end the war was the one that made the announcement of our victory. But I digress, as it doesn't matter who made the announcement, but that it was made. For now our troops are certainly that much closer to finally coming home.

And I'm sure our economy will see a rebound from this, for the fear of death around every corner is lifted slightly to let some light shine through.

I congratulate the military personnel involved in this mission, and am glad that none of them were harmed in this action.

Finally, a little light to brighten the darkness, hopefully this will help the entire world to see how much more we should band together to solve all of our problems and differences, rather than fight them out. Because in war, we all lose. For God is on neither side in any war. But he is for the soldiers and he loves them all with all of his heart. And he prays for them to see the error in their fighting, that they should not be at war.

Today America breathes a sigh of relief. And we look forward to tomorrow with hope and prayer.

God Bless our Troops.
God Bless America.
And may God Bless the World.

All the best,
Will
