Gettysburg Reenactment

Not long ago, I posted a story about Abraham Lincoln on this blog. A friend left a comment saying that , although Lincoln was taught scripture by his mother, he never embraced a relationship with Jesus, until he saw the dead at Gettysburg.

This is another story from the book "Pictures Your Heart Remembers" by John Trent:

"On the fiftieth anniversary of The Battle of Gettysburg, there was a reunion of the veterans who fought there. Someone had the idea to recreate the scene of Pickett's charge. The Union soldiers took their place on the ridge. The Confederate soldiers took their place on the field.

Someone sounded the charge, and the Union soldiers came out of hiding, running toward the Confederates. Before they reached each other, though, something incredible happened.

The whoops and hollers turned to tears. And when they collided on the field, they fell into each other's arms, weeping."

A Story about Abraham Lincoln

The following story is from the book "Pictures Your Heart Remembers" by John Trent:

"Lincoln lived his life trying to bring light and life to every relationship. Even his relationships with his enemies. He was often criticized for it. He spoke kindly not only to his enemies but about his enemies.

Overhearing Lincoln say a kind word about the South, an infuriated bystander confronted him about it. He answered, 'Madam, do I not destroy my enemies when I make them my friends?' "

attitude

"We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts, comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread.

They may have been few in number, but they offer sufficient proof that everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms---to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances..."
