On April 25, 1942, at just 16 (the future queen) PRINCESS Elizabeth II signed up to serve her country. She was eager. Determined. Ready. Her father hesitated - but she didn’t.

By 18, she was a mechanic and truck driver, getting her hands dirty in the middle of war. So here’s the question: What war are you facing and how will you rise to meet it—with courage beyond your years? God is great. His mercies are new every single day.
