English royalty rarely speak of their beliefs, but Queen Elizabeth II has written about her faith in a foreword to a new book entitled The Servant Queen and the King She Serves. She wrote, ‘I have been - and remain - very grateful to you for your prayers and to God for His steadfast love. I have indeed seen His faithfulness.’ The book, which gives readers a glimpse into Her Majesty's religious beliefs, was jointly written by three Christian charities - HOPE, the Bible Society and LICC. It will not be used for commercial gain, a condition that had to be met in order for the Queen to agree to write the foreword, in which she also refers to problems in the Middle East, saying the world is seeing suffering on an unprecedented scale. The Bible Society will publish the book in April, marking the Queen's 90th birthday.
