Default Earthquake hits England

Virtually unheard of, an earthquake measuring 5.2 on Richter scale as hit England.
Some injuries but no deaths that I have heard of.
Sign of the times?

I would have to say yes. There is an increase in unusual weather conditions throughout the world. I'm glad to hear there were no fatalities.

Question

Ray - everything OK at home? Did you speak with a neighbor or property manager as yet by phone? I know that you are still in France at the moment.

Dear Heavenly Father, we rejoice that there was no loss of life in this earthquake! We thank You, Father, for keeping Your hand on that country!
Lord, we ask that you continue to be with the emergency responders as they go out and take care of the people in this event. Guide thier feet and hands and protect them as they search buildings. Protect them from broken utilities and live wires. Guard their equipment and keeping it functioning. Please give good judgement to the leaders as they make decisions and keep everyone safe. Father, we ask that you give peace and cooperation among the different entities as they come together and work together to mitigate any damage this quake has caused.
Father, we lift our heads and rejoice! We rejoice that You are in control! AMEN!
