“Oh no, Jilly, not you, too. Please, you can’t possibly be old enough to be interested in boys!”

“You’ve been training your whole life for this position,” the King spoke gently. “Everything you’ve learned in your studies, and everything you’ve seen from me, it shall all help you greatly. But, Addison, no amount of training can fully prepare a man for the humbling and sometimes frightening task of being King. Many global leaders foolishly rule, and use their power for their own selfish gain. But my father desired that I do no such thing. He told me, ‘Son, you should take pride in your low position. To be a King is not to be the first, but to be the last. For someday you shall have to answer to God as to how you led these people.’ I took his words seriously, and pondered them every day. I advise you to do the same. Only God can give you the strength to be King, Addison. Only God.” ”

“Perhaps you could say I have been handed my role in life on a silver platter. I had no say as to what family I would be born into, nor did I tell God whether I would like the job to be ruler or not. No unborn fetus tells its Maker what color hair it wishes for, or what color eyes they might like to have. No unborn child can ask to be born into this family or that one. Instead, the Creator does whatever He pleases. He places each child in the exact home, nation, and time in history for which He sees fit. None of us asked for this life, neither did we pre-order the package in which we would like to be delivered! Instead, this precious life was a gift granted so graciously, by the Creator of the Universe.”
