Haunted by History

 

I am haunted by history. I keep thinking of all those people who left Germany as they saw the Nazis consolidate power, and I wonder if we shouldn't similarly be reading the signs of the times. But where could we go? I'm thankful our oldest is now a Canadian citizen, but I worry about our youngest.

And in the midst of all these thoughts I hear the Lord whisper, "incarnation." We have been called to serve Him in Eugene; perhaps the greatest witness to Him is to be with those who were not able to leave, when the unthinkable finally happens.
