Here is another quote I pulled from this book a year ago:
"Churchill understood himself as an instrument of God's intervention, which is why he sensed a mission to save "Christian civilization" from the threat of Nazism. Here, then, is our hope for the cataclysmic time in which we live: The same God who brought forth Winston Churchill (and other deliverers) still rules over history, and he has a deliverer - or deliverers - for our season as well.
It might even be the ultimate Deliverer."
God and Churchill by Jonathan Sandys (great-grandson of Winston Churchill)
In listening through the book of Daniel in the Old Testament this week, I have been struck by how God works in corrupt and evil times to bless his children and make them shine as lights in the darkness - even when they have to stand alone and make decisions with more-than-daunting consequences. But then, they weren't standing alone... for He was with them!
I'm so glad to be a member of the kingdom of "the ultimate Deliverer!"
