• Rav Kanievsky recently told those learning in Yeshivot who were already in the south of Israel not to leave, but he told those who wanted to go there not to go.  On the other hand, the Slonimer Rebbe told his Hasidim to go back to Ashdod and not to worry.
• Kikar tells us not to underestimate Hashem's role in the miracles that have occurred BA"H during the rocket attacks.  Along the same lines, YWN reports:

  15:15: A number of homes and vehicles were damaged. One cannot truly grasp the Yad Hashem without seeing the impact site, a street in the heart of a residential neighborhood yet the major fuss is over property damage and not worse chas v’sholom. Unfortunately, the media continues speaking of “The miracles” and the effectiveness of the Iron Dome system, but it appears they cannot say the “G” word, G-d. For those who understand what is taking place, it is clearly Yad Hashem, directing the over 130 rockets that have hit Israel since Friday night away from people and protecting the air force as pilots conduct sorties over Gaza. 

• Incredible video of people's reactions to how Hashem allowed the Iron Dome system to work (h/t Hamikdash):
• Mashiach is Coming points to a Behadrei Hareidim article which talks about the Tzanzer Rebbe's visit to Sholom Mordechai Rubashkin, and notes what the Rebbe said:  
  כבר שומעים בחלל את קול שופר של משיח והוא יגאל אותנו ויוציאנו מאפילה לאורה
