We have to go still deeper into the willing acceptance of the cross and death, and only when we are ready for this can we ask God to intervene and make history.

If the joy of our deepest unity fills our hearts, we will not be afraid of anyone. The reverence of perfect love drives out the fear of men. Whoever fears God fears no man. And perfect love drives out fear.
- Eberhard Arnold, October 1933
God stands above every event. Faith can withstand the storm of all forces only if we are one with God. It is not men who stand firm. God alone is invincible. In Him alone is the freedom of soul that guards against bondage to even the strongest force.
