Pleased With One's Life

"What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?"
Matthew 16:26

Throughout his administration, Abraham Lincoln was a president under fire, especially during the scarring years of the Civil War. And though he knew he would make errors of office, he resolved never to compromise his integrity. So strong was this resolve that he once said, "I desire so to conduct the affairs of this administration that if at the end, when I come to lay down the reins of power, I have lost every other friend on earth, I shall at least have one friend left, and that friend shall be down inside of me."

Prayer: Ask God to help you live your life in such a way to please both yourself and Him.

"I don't know who my grandfather was, I'm much more concerned to know what his grandson will be."
~Abraham Lincoln
"The secret of a good sermon is to have a good beginning and a good ending, then having the two as close together as possible."
~George Burns
