DB - Thursday 12th February 09 - Learning From Lincoln
Today is Abraham Lincoln's birthday and he is remembered for his kindness, integrity and courage. His farewell speech to his family and friends before he took up the United State's Presidency was humbling himself to admit that without God's help he is nothing but with God's help, he cannot fail.
We can learn from Lincoln's undoubting faith in God. His confident hope in the Lord is what kept him moving forward with strength and determination. We too can look into the future with confidence when we trust our Lord with all our hearts and souls. Lean not on our own understanding but instead to acknowledge our Lord as Lord of lords and King of kings.
Trust do not divide but instead will unite our spirit and strength to provide a solid fortress to vend off any threat and danger. Trust allows us to love and accept in faith. Trust will erase all our doubts and suspicions. Trust will help us to look towards the positive direction and gave us the hope and inspiration we need to overcome any situation. Trust in the Lord and don't despair for He is a Friend so true.
Living without trust in God is like driving in the fog.
In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. - Proverbs 3:6
