All due respect to Britain's Greatest Generation but Dunkirk was a full blown ,near panic stricken retreat the English Army barely escaped from. They had been chased off the continent in just about six weeks, having not learned the lesson of the Sclheffien(sp?) Plan and trusting in the belief that the French Army would hold back the panzers with the Maginot Line. Thankfully had Hitler not been a military dilettante the entire British Army would have been trapped and annihilated.

Actually, thankfully the people of Briton still served God. Every day during the Evacuation crisis the whole country prayed for deliverance, everyday at noon. God rewarded this devotion to prayer with pouring down rain that kept the German planes out of the sky and the German observers from knowing what artillery the English had at Dunkirk so that Hitler didn’t want to risk his Tanks to the Artillery. On top of that the Chanel was as calm as a pond during the evacuation so that the small boats could get across safely.

Would we today come to know as well as they did and serve Him and be blessed by Him.

I had never heard of the Schleiffen Plan. Funnily enough, there was a question on Jeopardy about it this week. So, I looked it up. Eerie to see the reference twice this week. Sadly, I believe that much of Europe is on it’s last legs, unless they can throw off the invaders. But that would require that they RECOGNIZE the enemy in their midst and RESPOND accordingly.

I highly recommend the new 3 part BBC series available on iTunes. Accurate and dramatic — It’s free to preview it.
