In this day of popular contests for the title of beauty queen, fashion queen, or "what-have-you," it is refreshing to the soul to read of a queen who was truly of the blood royal, yet in real humility could own her allegiance to the King of kings.
Such a one was Victoria, a former queen of England. She, with other ladies of her court, could say with the prophet Jeremiah: "Thus saith the Lord... let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth Me.”
You may have heard a story involving one of Queen Victoria's "ladies." When she read in the Scriptures, "Not many mighty, not many noble, are called," she rejoiced to find the letter "m" preceding a-n-y. Said she: "That letter m lets me in!”
Indeed, the highest and the lowest are invited to be partakers of God's grace, not only for their own salvation, but, as workers together with Christ, to be able to show others the way.
