A JOURNEY CALLED THE MIND

Remembering is like turning the blanket of your mind inside out.  It is then that you find all your yesterdays that have sifted through.  They are evergreens in the forests of your thoughts.  They are paths that should be re-walked from time to time. 

BELOW IS...YOUR 'ONE A DAY' for Today

NEVER TO LATE TO CHANGE

During the Revolutionary War one Captain John Calendar was found guilty of cowardice at Bunker Hill. After he had been court-martialed, General Washington discharged him.

It was after this that John Callendar, set an example that more men might follow. Though he had been a captain, he re-enlisted as a private. Some months later he displayed such courage in a battle, Washington publicly revoked his court-marshal and restored him to his previous rank of captain.

No matter what we have done or left undone, it is never too late to repent and remake a life.

“He who rejects change is the architect of decay. The only human institution which rejects progress is the cemetery.” ~Harold Wilson

Philippians 4:13 – “We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us.”

Proverbs 4:23 - Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life.

fear not, for I am with you;
be not dismayed, for I am your God;

I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
—Isaiah 41:10

       BELOW ARE SOME OF THE RAVE REVIEWS ABOUT "THE SPIRITUAL ABRAHAM LINCOLN."

++++++++++++++++

      "Positive, powerful utterances...skillfully enhancing our understanding and appreciation of Lincoln while revealing the Divine source of his strength."

      Lt. Colonel C.A. Olsen (Ret.) Asbury College (Professor Ret.)

"The Spiritual Abraham Lincoln is an extremely well written book that investigates what might be termed the spiritual side of President Lincoln. It's both scholarly and very readable. I came away impressed at Mr. Wyrick's portrayal of the President and with an altered and enlarged vision of the man:'

      William Hoffman, Award winning fiction writer; author of Blood and Guile, and Wild Thorn

"Wyrick has authored a wonderful examination of the spirituality of one of American history's most devoutly religious leaders...a pleasant and readable book that has a rich depth of information."

      Maynard Pittendreigh Presbyterian minister

 

 

       "When it comes to invoking religion in support of any of their decisions, politicians need to sit at the feet of Abraham Lincoln. Reinhold Niebuhr once called him 'America's greatest theologian.' Why so great? Because he invariably distinguished between human works and the works of the Almighty. As Wyrick says, 'He wore the mantLe of humility easily: because he was more impressed with what God was doing in the world than with what he, president of the United States in the midst of an awful crisis, was doing. That is why in his last major speech he distinguished between both human causes in the Civil War and the Almighty's 'own purposes.' Lincoln would have agreed that it is better to leave God-talk out of politics than to decorate human proposals with divinity. This is a book for our American time. Through his careful study of Lincoln's career, Wyrick compels us to remember that piety belongs in politics only when piety transcends politics."

      Dr. Donald W. Shriver

      Emeritus professor at Union Theological Seminary in New York. Author of An Ethic for Enemies: Forgiveness in Politics

       "v. Neil Wyrick's fine work allows the reader to appreciate Abraham Lincoln's Christian commitment and his prophetic role in American history. Should have a wide readership."

      James H. Smylie Professor of Church History (Ret.) Union Theological Seminary, Richmond, Virginia

      "Neil Wyrick's The Spiritual Abraham Lincolnshould be read by anyone attempting to understand the man who was probably the most complex person to ever hold the office of president of the United States. Dr. Wyrick is intent on demonstrating that the spirituality so often expressed in Lincoln's writings and speeches was not merely lip service to a Deity, but rather expressions of a profound faith in a real God. It was this faith that provided the wisdom, compassion, insight and sometimes steel that Lincoln would need in fullmeasure as he led the United States through the Civil War. Dr. Wyrick's clear and unpretentious style of presentation is very much in keeping with the character ofhis subject, and in so doing, Wyrick makes his point very well that Lincoln, his beliefs, and the faith that formed them, are as relevant to a troubled America in 2004 as they were in 1863."
