GOD'S PLAYGROUND
«I have thought at times of Norman Davies famous work on Poland and the often-heard quote, “Poland is God’s Playground.” To me, Poland has represented something more than “just” a playground for God. In type, I see Poland as ancient Israel and how through the Jews the Scripture were given to the world and from the seed of Israel our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. In this type, Poland in her 1,000 year history has been used by God to maintain the spiritual freedom of Europe and thereby the world. By such events as the freedom of worship to the Jews under the reign of Casmir the Great. By the event of King Jan Sobieski and his magnificent Winged Hussars saving all of Christian Europe, during the Battle of Vienna in 1683 when she would have been overrun by the Turks and Europe could now be under Islam. And in a smaller, yet to me, a very interesting type of Israel wiped from the face of the world for nearly 2,000 years to finally be reborn as a nation in 1948. I think of Poland, partitioned and wiped from the face of the earth for parts of two centuries with a vow of those nations who carved her up to,”NEVER allow Poland to return as a nation. And yet, GOD did restore her and Poland was reborn and she now awaits her greater destiny in the events yet to unfold on the world stage.»
