The Lesson Of Abraham Lincoln By Rabbi Jonathan Cahn
Afternoon Devotional Message
Tuesday, September 4, 2018
Abraham Lincoln was generally considered to have been a homely man. Yet when you looked at his character, Abraham Lincoln shows us that in the end, it doesnโt matter what you look like, but who you are. Itโs written that man looks at the outside, but God looks at the inside. That goes for you too. It doesnโt matter what you look like: big, little, old, young, handsome, homely, beautiful or plain. It doesnโt matter because God doesnโt see you that way. So why do we spend so much of our time trying to look good when God doesnโt even look at it. Donโt seek so much to look beautiful โ seek rather to be beautiful. Start concentrating on actually being right instead of trying to appear right, or working at actually being good instead of looking good. All earthly beauty fades away, but the inner beauty of the Lord never does. So instead of wasting your life dwelling on how others see you or how you look, spend the remainder of your precious days on earth learning not to look beautiful but to be beautiful in the eyes of God.
From Message #521 - The Days of Beautification
Scripture:ย 1 Peter 3:3-4
TODAYโS MISSION -ย Today, make it your focus not to look or appear beautiful, but to be beautiful in the eyes of God.
