“ Love may precede respect but it cannot survive the loss of it. ”
There is something incredibly nostalgic and significant about the annual cascade of autumn leaves.
~ Joe L. Wheeler
When Lincoln was asked if God was on the Union’s side, Lincoln’s unvarying response was that what was really important was whether they were on God’s side.
Lincoln grew immeasurably as he came to think of himself as an “instrument of God’s will.
Man’s glory lies not, Lincoln thought, in ‘his goodness,’ for this is often nonexistent. He derives glory, instead, from his being made in the image of the Living God.
